... who died in a horrific car crash on the way out to the golf course one afternoon. So, they get up to the Pearly Gates and are about to stroll right through when St. Peter jumps up and says "Wait a second! What makes you think you DESERVE to get in here?"
He points at the first doctor, who says "Well, I invented the artificial hip. Now, all sorts of people who can't walk because of a bad hip can have an operation and then they can walk again!"
St. Pete says, "Hmmm ... that's very good! You're in! Next...." and he points at the second doctor. This doctor says "I invented the artificial heart! Now, people whose hearts fail can be kept alive so that they can have a transplant and go on to lead a longer, happy life."
St. Pete is even more impressed, and ushers the second doctor in. Then he turns to the third doctor, who says, "Well now, I was the CEO of the largest HMO in the United States!"
St. Peter looks at him and says, "That is JUST wonderful!"
"You can stay three weeks."
