History of PM&R

Regarding Dr. Frank Krusen, one of the founders of PM&R:

"Frank quickly forgot his studies to give his full attention to courting Margaret. As a result, he found himself repeating his first year of college."

And thus the quintessential physiatrist was born.

    So basically the founder of your specialty was a horny flunky. Fantastic showing for PM&R.

    I love a short blog entry that makes me laugh but takes longer to explain to an uninformed person than it takes to actually read. Thanks for making my morning fun!

    I actually went to a physiatrist last month. I still can't tell you what they do, but I liked him.
