טוב שברופאים

טוב שברופאים לגיהנום - The best of doctors to gehenom, says the gemara. There are many explanations. One is that there are 18 brachos in our shmoneh esrei. A really good doctor skips one - רפאנו - because he doesn't need Hashem's help. He can do it himself. The gematria of טוב is 17 which is the amount of brachos he says. Such a doctor is not destined to go to a good place....

A chasidic explanation - The best of doctors goes into the gehenom his patient is feeling. He truly empathizes.

טוב שברופאים לגיהנום - compliment or criticism? It all depends on how you read it.
