Dr. Koop- Is There a Doctor on Board? Yes, 15 of Them
If you’re going to have a heart
attack on a transcontinental jet, make sure there’s a doctor on board.
In 67-year-old Dorothy Fletcher’s case, there were plenty of
them — and not just doctors, but cardiologists.
When the Liverpool grandmother started having severe chest pain aboard the England-
to-Orlando flight, a stewardess yelled out, “Is there a doctor on the plane?” According to an account from BBC News Online, 15 passengers
shouted, “Yes.” Turns out they were on their way to a cardiologist convention in Florida.
