You 2 really need to STFU and get over it.  This bullshit gives doctors a bad wrap - on both sides.   
You two have a love hate relationship, we get that - but you both do good by your patients.   
Here's the question: IF Rick had a client that needed surgery, would he send him to Kirk AND IF Kirk had a patient that needs to pursue surgical alternatives, would he send him to Rick?   
Would you 2 faggots refer to one another?  If so, then stfu.  If not, carry on - becasue you both are so smart.
