I am writing regarding your published letter from Dr Erik Paetkau, Sechelt, [BCMJ 2000;42(10):451].

I couldn’t resist telling you of the four surgeons (three of whom were a group) who taught me as an intern in Edmonton in 1978–79: Drs Hackett, Killam, Bury, and Hyde (honest!).

Do others out there have similar anecdotes or apprepot names to give us?
