                          INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
                          ----------------------------

To the Shareholder of
AARDS, Inc.
Hollywood,  Florida

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of AARDS, Inc. as of December 31,
1996 and 1995, and the related statements of operations and retained earnings
and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatements. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of AARDS, Inc. as of December 31,
1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                          Notes to Financial Statements

                     Years Ended December 31, 1996 and 1995





NOTE 1  -  ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

           ORGANIZATION - AARDS, Inc. (the "Company") was organized as a Florida
           corporation in May 1991 under the name of Norman Gaylis, M.D. P.A.
           The Company is a provider of arthritic and rheumatic health care.

           ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND REVENUES - Accounts receivable are primarily
           amounts due under fee-for-service contracts from third party payors,
           such as insurance companies, patients, and government health care
           programs. These receivables are presented net of an estimated
           allowance for contractual adjustments and uncollectible receivables.
           Contractual adjustments result from the difference between the rates
           for services performed and reimbursable amounts from government
           programs and insurance companies for those services.

           PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT - Property and equipment are recorded at cost.
           Depreciation is computed using accelerated methods over the estimated
           useful lives of the related assets which is five to ten years.
           Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over
           the lease-term which is five years.

           CREDIT RISK - Financial instruments which potentially subject the
           Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of
           receivables from third party payors. The Company performs credit
           evaluations of its patients and their insurance carriers, and
           establishes allowances for potential losses as considered necessary,
           in order to limit concentrations of credit risk and potential credit
           losses.

           FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - Statement of Financial
           Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of
           Financial Instruments ("SFAS 107") requires disclosure of the fair
           value of certain financial instruments. Cash, other current assets,
           other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses are reflected in
           the accompanying financial statements at cost which approximates fair
           value.

           INCOME TAXES - The Company accounts for income taxes under Statement
           of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income
           Taxes," which requires that deferred income taxes be recognized for
           the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax
           basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting basis
           at rates based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable
           to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect
           taxable income. For the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company
           filed its tax return on a consolidated basis with its parent company.

NOTE 1  -  ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
           (CONTINUED)

           For that year the Company had a deferred tax asset of $76,500 and an
           income tax benefit of $65,000. For the year ended December 31, 1995,
           the provision for income taxes consisted of the following:


                      Current                 $ 29,000

                                              ========


           USE OF ESTIMATE - The preparation of financial statements in
           conformity with generally accepted accounting principles require
           management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain
           reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could
           differ from those estimates.

                                           =======      =======


NOTE 4  -  LINE-OF-CREDIT

           As of December 31, 1995, the Company has a line-of-credit with a bank
           which bears interest at prime plus 1% (9.5% at December 31, 1995) and
           is renewable annually. In January 1996, the line-of-credit was repaid
           and terminated.


NOTE 5  -  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

           During 1996, the Company was a member of an affiliated group whereby
           management and administrative expenses incurred by an affiliate are
           allocated to the Company based on number of visits or physicians
           depending on the type of expense. For the year ended December 31,
           1996, approximately $176,000 of such costs were allocated to the
           Company. In addition, all of the Company's cash receipts and
           disbursements were administered by this affiliate for which the
           Company was charged a fee of $135,000. These costs are included in
           general and administrative expenses on the accompanying 1996
           statement of operations and retained earnings. As of December 31,
           1996 the total amount due to related parties was approximately
           $454,000.

NOTE 6  -  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

           INSURANCE - The Company maintains insurance coverage for its
           professional malpractice claims. Such insurance provides for coverage
           to the extent individual claims do not exceed $1,000,000 per incident
           and $7,500,000 in the aggregate per year.

                    Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)






NOTE 6  -  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES  (CONTINUED)

           Due to the nature of its business, the Company from time to time
           becomes involved as a defendant in medical malpractice lawsuits and
           is subject to the attendant risk of substantial damage awards. The
           Company maintains professional and general liability insurance on a
           claims made basis in amounts deemed appropriate by management, based
           upon historical claims and the nature and risks of its business.
           There can be no assurance, however, that an existing or future claim
           or claims will exceed the limits of available insurance coverage,
           that any insurer will remain solvent and able to meet its obligations
           to provide coverage for any such claims or that such coverage will
           continue to be available at a reasonable cost to adequately and
           economically insure the Company's operations in the future. A
           judgment against the Company in excess of such coverage could have a
           material adverse effect on the Company.

           EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS - The Company has an employment contract with a
           physician. Future annual minimum payments under the employment
           contract are as follows:

                  1997                  $  450,000
                  1998                     450,000
                  1999                     450,000
                  2000                     450,000
                  2001                     450,000
                                        ----------
                                        $2,250,000
                                        ==========

           LEASE COMMITMENTS - The Company leases medical office facilities and
           medical equipment under various non-cancelable operating leases.
           Rental expense for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 was
           $128,674 and $95,623, respectively.

           Approximate future annual minimum payments under operating leases are
           as follows:

                  1997                  $113,000
                  1998                   111,000
                  1999                    92,000
                  2000                    92,000
                  2001                    92,000
                  Thereafter             182,000
                                        --------

                  Total                 $682,000
                                        ========


NOTE 7  -  SUBSEQUENT EVENT

           In April 1997, the Company sold its net assets to an unrelated party
           for $1,900,000 in cash.

                          Notes to Financial Statements

                     Years Ended December 31, 1996 and 1995





NOTE 1  -  ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

           ORGANIZATION - Rosenbaum, Weitz and Ritter, Inc. (the "Company") was
           organized as a Florida corporation in September 1980 under the name
           of Rosenbaum, Weitz and Ritter, P.A. The Company is a provider of
           arthritic and rheumatic health care.

           ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND REVENUES - Accounts receivable are primarily
           amounts due under fee-for-service contracts from third party payors,
           such as insurance companies, patients, and government health care
           programs. These receivables are presented net of an estimated
           allowance for contractual adjustments and uncollectible receivables.
           Contractual adjustments result from the difference between the rates
           for services performed and reimbursable amounts from government
           programs and insurance companies for those services.

           PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT - Property and equipment are recorded at cost.
           Depreciation is computed using accelerated method over the estimated
           useful lives of the related assets which is five to ten years.

           CREDIT RISK - Financial instruments which potentially subject the
           Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of
           receivables from third party payors. The Company performs credit
           evaluations of its patients and their insurance carriers and
           establishes allowance for potential losses as considered necessary in
           order to limit concentrations of credit risk and potential credit
           losses.

           FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - Statement of Financial
           Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of

           INCOME TAXES - The Company accounts for income taxes under Statement
           of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income
           Taxes," which requires that deferred income taxes be recognized for
           the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax
           basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting basis
           at rates based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable
           to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect
           taxable income. For the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company
           filed its tax return on a consolidated basis with its parent company.
           For that year, the Company had a deferred tax asset of $91,000 and an
           income tax benefit of $68,700.

           USE OF ESTIMATE - The preparation of financial statements in
           conformity with generally accepted accounting principles require
           management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain
           reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could
           differ from those estimates.

                    Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)


NOTE 6  -  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

           During 1996, the Company was a member of an affiliated group whereby
           management and administrative expenses were incurred by an affiliate
           and allocated to the Company based on number of visits or physicians
           depending on the type of expense. For the year ended December 31,
           1996, approximately $273,000 of such costs were allocated to the
           Company. In addition, all of the Company's cash receipts and
           disbursements were administered by this affiliate for which the
           Company was charged a fee of $273,000. As of December 31, 1996, the
           total amount due to related parties was approximately $579,000.

           During 1995, all management and administrative costs were incurred
           directly by the Company.


NOTE 7  -  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

           INSURANCE - The Company maintains insurance coverage for its
           professional malpractice claims. Such insurance provides for coverage
           to the extent individual claims do not exceed $1,000,000 per incident
           and $7,500,000 in the aggregate per year.

           Due to the nature of its business, the Company from time to time
           becomes involved as a defendant in medical malpractice lawsuits and
           is subject to the attendant risk of substantial damage awards. The
           Company maintains professional and general liability insurance on a
           claim made basis in amounts deemed appropriate by management, based
           upon historical claims and the nature and risks of its business.
           There can be no assurance however, that an existing or future claim
           or claims will exceed the limits of available insurance coverage,
           that any insurer will remain solvent and able to meet its obligations
           to provide coverages for any such claims or that such coverage will
           continue to be available at a reasonable cost to adequately and
           economically insure the Company's operations in the future. A
           judgment against the Company in excess of such coverage could have a
           material adverse effect on the Company.


NOTE 8  -  SUBSEQUENT EVENT

           On April 10, 1997, the Company sold its net assets to an unrelated
           party for $1,400,000 in cash.
