"'People's Doctor' for Surgeon General?"
Washington Times (10/03/97) P. A19; Criner, Lawrence
In an editorial in the Washington Times, Lawrence Criner wonders whether
David Satcher, recently nominated for the position of surgeon general, is
really the right man for the job. Not only are Satcher's policies as
director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention questionable,
says Criner, but the position he would assume has been made more powerful
than it was previously. If confirmed, Satcher will also serve as assistant
Secretary of Health at the Department of Health and Human Services.
