I actually know a doctor who told me a similar story to this. During his flight, a man fell very ill and someone called for a doctor. He was hoping someone else would answer the call, but no one came, so he stood up. He examined the man and found that while ill, the flight did not have to be diverted, and told the crew that as long as the man got proper medical attention on the ground, they should be okay.
After the plane landed, a representative from the airline asked to speak to the doctor privately. She wanted to sincerely thank him for his help, and wanted him to know that the airline wanted to compensate him for his service. She handed him a slip of paper, smiled politely, and walked off. The doctor was very excited. Perhaps a free flight? Miles? A first class upgrade?
Heading to the baggage claim, he excitedly unfolded the paper.
