Columbus Dispatch: Ohio Doctors Honor Kasich with Voice of Medicine Award

He never became a doctor like he’s always wanted to, but Gov. John Kasich won Ohio doctors’ Voice of Medicine award today “for his outstanding leadership in the area of health-care reform.”

“To me, being a physician is the absolutely greatest job anyone could have in our society,” he told about 200 gathered for the Ohio State Medical Association’s annual meeting at an Easton hotel. “The Lord gave you a brain, and it was a brain that was designed to heal people. I mean, can you think of anything better than that?”

Maybe being a first-class governor isn’t better than being a doc, but it’s right up there. Congratulations on your award, Governor.
