When I did medical transcription I often heard things like this. One of my favorites: "After a joint (long pause) meeting with the Dental Facial Deformities Board..." Makes you wonder what's really happening in the Oral Surgery Department. Here's another: "The patient's umbilical hernia was repaired by Naval surgeons in Korea." I repeated this one to my husband, who said, "They must be specialists."
This blog is entirely for entertainment purposes. All posts about patients, or my everyday life, or anything else may be fictional, or be my experience, or were submitted by a reader, or any combination of the above. Factual statements may or may not be accurate. I could be making all this up. I may not even be a doctor. The only true statement on here is that I probably drink more Diet Coke than you do. A lot more.

Note: I do not answer medical questions. If you are having a medical issue, see your own doctor. For all you know I'm really a Mongolian yak herder and have no medical training at all except in issues regarding the care and feeding of Mongolian yaks.

Slightly complicate relationship there. Wonder if everybody knows about everybody?

Geez, makes me wonder what she landed in the hospital for....
If you think that's complicated, wait until you see what's up with the husband's six other wives. Especially Mrs. Wednesday.
