Gosh, I sure wish this doctor would spend more time spelling the REAL words she so badly mangles. lol _________________________ Sherri 2007 M-TEC grad

To add insult to injury, he had hiccups at the time he was dictating, so it sounded like he actually would regurgitate! $\:o$

Some of you may have had this before, but it was new for me... She also states that if she gets in the hot tub for any length of time, that helps it a lot too. So I am going to get a prescription for a hot tub. I think I need to make an appointment for hip pain too!! Of course this is just so she can write it off on her taxes, as he states the insurance probably won't go for it. _________________________ What would you do with a brain if you had one? -- Dorothy -- Wizard of Oz

What, you mean he can't whip the eyeball out of his pocket and have a look around? _________________________ Good grammar ain't easy.

NiteNinja00 NiteNinja00 Member Registered: 01/14/03 Posts: 1009 Loc: Indianapolis	I have a new ER doc today....he keeps calling me "dictationist," as in, "Dictationist, could you please go up and change my abdominal exam to...Thanks, dictationist." _________________________ There are three kinds of people in the world.
