    Two patients limp into two different Medical clinics with the same
    complaint. Both have trouble walking and appear to require a hip replacement.

    The first patient sees the family doctor after waiting a week for an
    appointment, then waits eighteen weeks to see a specialist, then gets an
    x-ray, which isn't reviewed for another month and finally has his surgery
    scheduled for 6 months from then.

    The second patient is examined within the hour, is x-rayed the same day
    and has a time booked for surgery the following week.

    Why the different treatment for the two patients?
