    Ever know any professionals that became dubs?

    I can't think of any myself, no doctors, lawyers, business owners (I mean medium to big business, not just one guy cleaning windows, etc).

    In a previous congregation I knew a "brother" who was a medical doctor. Everyone called him "brother" but he was never babtized. Anyone wanna guess why?

    Yes I know of 2 doctors that have practiced in our area, one moved back to Dallas Tx because his wife just couldnt stand the small town life (population 15,000) and the other is still practicing in a city about 50 miles from my town, he is from the Dominican Republic and is a Diabetic doctor, he is really nice. He always makes sure that he leaves the office early enough in the day to be able to make it home for the meetings. Poor soul, just doesnt realise what a waste of time it all is.

    Yes, I knew one who was a Medical Doctor, one who was a Chiropractor, a few who were architects and engineers, etc., etc. There was one who was a lawyer, but he got caught pilferring trust funds.

    Yes. An elder in our congregation studied with a medical student, who went on to become a surgeon. Post baptism, he and his wife wwew invited to serve at Patterson. The society paid his medical school loans and built a beautiful LARGE home for them near Patterson.

    My husband had a medical doctor in his congegation in Las Vegas. This brother married the city overseer's daughter, who was much younger than he. Several years later, they were disfellowshipped for apostacy (blood related), however, subsequent to that, they "repented" and were invited to serve at Brooklyn.

    In my congregation we have a female lawyer and a sister who is a Captain for a major international airline. She also holds the distinction of being the first female Air Force pilot to fly supersonic.
