Medical Breakthrough: Las Vegas’s Hangover Cure on A Bus

Jamie Reidy comments on a doctor’s mobile hangover cure in Sin City.

USA Today’s Kitty Bean Yancey reports on a controversial morning after treatment.

Anesthesiologist Jason Burke, MD… offers Hangover Heaven’ offers IV therapy to rehydrate partiers. Anti-nausea medicine and vitamin treatments also are offered.

Something tells me Dr. Jason Burke is the early leader in the Las Vegas Man of The Year balloting.

I wonder how THE HANGOVER would’ve turned out if this service existed three years ago?My reaction to this invention is simple: “All aboard!”

Naturally, not everyone agrees with me.

Fellow physician Robert Glatter, who practices emergency-room medicine in New York City, wrote onForbes.com: “While there is no doubt that Hangover Heaven is a band-aid for your symptoms, it’s sometimes better to actually feel the pain, as it’s a good reminder of the evils of consuming too much alcohol.”

That guy sounds a lot like my mother. Note to self: do not invite Dr. Robert Glatter to next Guy’s Weekend.

Would you pay for a ride on the Hangover Heaven?
