Doctors are the most helpful and smartest people in the world. They help you get better if you get sick. They help you stay healthy if you need it. Doctors give you an Epi pen if you have an allergie. Some of my friends have allergies they have Epi pens. They are always working in case you need them. I think doctors should be more appreciated by their patients like you and me.

They keep you healthy too. For instance they give you medicine or shots. All the time on my birthdays I need to get shots. They also check if you have the flu or even a cold. My sister once got sick so the doctor checked if she had a flu. The doctor tested if she had the flu or not turns out she didn’t. If you need glasses they give them to you. In fact I have many friends who have glasses.

Doctors help you heal you too. Like how sometimes they heal your broken bones. Like how one time my sister broke her arm she had to go to the doctor. The doctor came and gave her a x-ray. She had to get a cast so the doctor put one on her. When the doctor left she felt better already. If you do get a broken bone they will probably give you a cast or crutches. For example my sister has a friend who used to have crutches. They might also give you a xray. When my sister got her arm broken the doctor gave her a xray. That’s how she knew that she had a hairline fracture.

Doctors make you happier as well. One way that they do that is they ask you how your day was. Whenever I go to the doctor she always asks what subject at school I like the best. Or they might ask what you did after your school day was over. Doctors also might give you a treat at the end of your check up. For example a sticker. Also if  you’re scared like when you are getting a shot they will calm you down. Like how once I was afraid of getting a shot the doctor was so nice that she gave me a tool so that the shot wouldn’t hurt. Don’t you want doctors to be happy too? Make them happy the way they make you happy.

You might say that we shouldn’t appreciate doctors. Or doctors already get paid why do they need more? Although doctors like I said before make us happy! If you were a doctor you would want people to appreciate you wouldn’t you? Well if you do you should treat doctors that way. Think about the way you want to be treated.

You should appreciate your doctor. They keep you active. Doctors help you get better from wounds,cuts or even broken bones. They can also keep you physically fit. Doctors fill you with joy as well. So go thank your doctor today.
