THE DOCTOR'S DILEMMA
'''The Doctor's Dilemma''' is a play by G. Bernard Shaw first staged in 1906. The thesis of the play, revolutionary for its time, was that medical doctors inevitably face a dilemma between the need to care for their patients and the need to practice often unnecessary operations on them in order to earn their livelihood. It was a merciless parody of Sir William Arbuthnot-Lane, 1st Bt. It also attacked aspects of the germ theory of disease, and included socialist and anti-vivisectionist viewpoints.
