So my grandma broke her hip, this chill bone whisperer fixed her right up. My mom and I are in the room with granny and she's convinced that telling everyone that her son is a doctor will get us special treatment. I keep asking her to stop but yeah too bad.
The surgeon walks in the room, it's a Sunday, he's in shorts and a collared shirt and he looks like he's ready to go golfing afterwards. He wants to show us xrays of his fine work and my mom points to me and asks him to show me to make sure he did everything correctly because i'm a doctor.
"I'm just internal medicine" is what I said. He looked at me like someone would look at little Timmy the orphan. "That's ok! You can do it!" What I meant was - I don't give a shit what the xrays look like. What he understood was this poor guy thinks he's JUST internal medicine he needs some self confidence!
He was a total sweetheart. This is where the screws are, this is the hip, this is were the fracture was. After some light pimping, we're ready to go. Of course, every nurse and secretary says "bye doctor" as we leave.
