The Apple Doesn't Fall Far from the Tree
(children take after their parents)
Well, Mr. West, this rash is nothing serious. Just apply this ointment, and it should be gone in a few days.
Thanks, doctor. By the way, how is your son doing?
Great! He's in his second year of medical school, and doing quite well.
Ah! The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
So it seems. Actually, I'm very proud of him. He says that he wants to specialize in heart surgery.
That's ambitious. I'm sure you're pleased that your son is following in your footsteps by going into medicine.
Yes, that makes me happy. He should make a fine surgeon.
