The only change I would like to see is that those pictured would have the quintessential stone cold expression seen on the face of every physician ever photographed since 1971. Heads down, arms crossed, too busy for a photograph. That says experience, warmth, and trust when it comes to choosing a healthcare institution to me. I love this ad.

Even if it is a sample ad. there is no address, no contact info., Circle J could be slang for a sexual act, and how in the world would anyone think that "we beat everybody" is appropriate as a tag line for a hospital? Having said that, in the midst of our national healthcare debate, to shine a light on rampant narcissism within our society at large is subtle and clever. And allthis from a senior marketing director named "Joe Kool"? Seriously? No way. This has to be a joke.
