And I understand that you are a clown. Literally.
But, I don't appreciate having to listen to your horribly corny jokes. Or you honking a bicycle horn after each one. Or showing me your cheesy squirting flower.
And it's hard for me to assess your balance when you wear giant floppy shoes.
But thank you for the smiley face "I met a clown today" sticker that you put on my shirt.

Holy crap I would refuse treatment! Hates clowns. Hates.
Was this an actual patient visit, or a nightmare?
We read your blog in our medical office to make our patients look normal...
Real patient. The office girls are still laughing. And not with him.
We had a clown up in triage one day, but he was obviously not as committed to the art as this guy. Taking your bicycle horn into the office and utilizing it frequently? That's the extra mile in the clown world.
You win. Weirdest patient ever.
WOW. Just wow. I have nothing against clowns or otherwise, but this clown just doesn't appear to relate well to others. My guess is that there's some delusional activity going on that the patient is not entirely aware of. I wouldn't be surprised if there's a script for lithium that they're not taking as it should be.
Patch Adams came to visit you?
So this is not related to your post but I thought you could relate to a frustration with our insurance company. Last Wednesday I went to refil my 1 year old's reflux meds. She has been on them since she was 4 months old and we have never had an issue filling it. The dose has changed at times of course and we have tried to go off of it, but she clearly needs it. In any case, we received a call that it was not covered by insurance. I questioned that as nothing had changed with our insurance. Then we were told that it was a software issue. Two days later Walgreens could not resolve the software issue so it was transferred to Target who claimed that we need pre approval and that was the issue. So we got that but in the mean time had to pay out of pocket for a 10 day dose. So pre approval done, still not going through. We could insurance and they said that we did not need pre approval that Target used the wrong code. Okay.... called Target to find out that it is a software issue. Prescription transferred back to Walgreens in which we were told that it is still a software issue. Evidently future scripts update their software and no other local pharmacy has the new software. They changed the codes on this medicine, omeprozole, and so it is not showing up as the same medicine. So basically it is a computer issue. Human beings in this case can not talk to human beings to solve the issue. So we are a week out and no one knows what to do. I know it is a boring and long story but honestly it shows how ridiculous insurance companies can be. They actually do not know when this will be resolved. We are beyond frustrated, especially since I really hate this drug, but she chokes and screams non stop without it!
Hubby took daughter to GYN appointment. 50-ish couple walked in, man & woman. Given paperwork to fill out. She complained she didn't have her glasses; told him he was supposed to make sure she had them. he said, no problem, I'll read the questions to you. Reader: Did you have your first intercourse before the age of 15. Woman: Why do they have to ask that...long pause...yes. Reader: next question, have you had more than 5 sexual partners? Longer pause...looks around...yes. Long pause, reader says: REALLY? At which point my daughter emerged from her visit and hubby and daughter had to leave, fortunately before hubby broke into uncontrollable laughter. Daughter said he had a funny-odd look on his face when she came out. He was just wondering what the other questions and answers would be. Thought you might enjoy this one.
Clowns are scary!
...lol Yikes!! O_O

Classic case, get help now.
Okay, my new theory is that your staff are shooting a hidden camera sitcom in your office without telling you.
