Doctors Discussion

Get well soon!

'Instead of 'You're entering a world of pain', try 'This won't hurt a bit.''

'Have you been taking your medicine every day?'

'It's called a bedSIDE manner, Doctor.'

'I'm referring you to a specialist who isn't as afraid to die as I am.'

'Either I've got bad news for you or my watch has stopped...'

"If yer a potato, I'm a potato."

'Just remember, you're not alone - I'm scared to death, too.'

"We'd like to start out being very involved with you but eventually be drawn away to much more interesting cases down the hall."

"I assure you I do appreciate what you're feeling."

'Isn't there ANYTHING you can do, Doctor?'

"Well done Carson! This could be the answer to our bed shortage problems!"

"Of course I'm listening to your expression of spiritual suffering. Don't you see me making eye contact, striking an open posture, leaning towards you and nodding emphatically."

"I would not recommend you bypass heart surgery."

"I find this helps, when I have to tell a patient some devastating news."

'Doc, check out screen 2 in ten minutes...we got the big game!'

"The surgery went well. It had spread, but I'm quite confident we got it all."

'I've called maintenance about your bed, Mr. Grimes...Mr. Grimes?'

"Your bloodwork just came back. . . the GOOD news is that you've definitely got some!"

'I see you had egg for breakfast.' - 'Yesterday morning.'

'Actually, you're my second patient if you count that cadaver in med school.'

'It's alright for you - you're going home today!'

"The doctor is a little squeamish, so don't mention anything gross."

"It looks like the internal bleeding should - I'm sorry. It's taking everything in my power not to tickle you right now."

'We got your test results back. Read it and weep.' Bedside bloopers
