Quote of the Day: Fads and Fancies Spur Obstetric Progress

Share on Facebook

“I wish to say that if there were no faddists in obstetrics there would be no progress made in obstetrics. What progress has been made in obstetrics has originated in fads and fancies of some men.”

 

-Harry A. Davidson, 1922

Kentucky Medical Journal, Volume 20, 1922
