ReplyDeletePatient : Doctor how long will it take for you to pull out my decayed tooth?
Dentist : A couple of minutes.
Patient : How much will is cost?
Dentist : about $35.
Patient : $35!!! For just a couple of minutes? Isn't that daylight robbery?
Dentist : Well if time is your main grouse, I could always take a bit longer and pull out your teeth out slowly.

ReplyDeleteWho is this clownish nurse?!
ReplyDeleteno, no, no, tis's not a clownish nurse. i feel it's a intellectually-challenged nurse! man, it'd cuss her if she does it to me.
ReplyDeleteif i'm a doctor.....
ha.
p/s: there're such nurses around? alive? god...my heart really goes out to all u doctors!
for every stupid nurse, there has to be an equally blur doctor...
ReplyDeleteacherly finding the right pictures on the net do take time. aniway creds for the creativity on right spin on words. it's a laugh!
ReplyDeleteI am quite sure this story is true because I have personally encountered it during my time as a HO.
ReplyDeleteIt is not as stupid as it sounds. I mean the nurse doesn't go "Wake up Mr Tan. You have to wake up to take your sleeping pills" THIS IS NOT WHAT HAPPENS.
What happens is that the nurses prepare all the medication for the patients in particular room. They put all the pills into little cups and then sort of distribute it to all the patients in the room. So after a while they forget what medicine exactly each patient is taking. Most times the patients have more than 1 medicine to take.
So the nurse wakes all the patients up and tell them to take the medicine on their tables, most often forgetting exactly what medicine the patient is taking.
It's more of a procedural flaw. It works for most cases.
So please, nurses are not clowns. In fact they are very helpful and they have a very tough job. In Singapore nurses do a lot more than their western world counterparts and are underappreciated at times.

ReplyDeleteThat was very good!
No wonder the patients have been getting it all wrong. They should be nice to the nurses rather than the doctors!
Just like you should be nice and pray to God.
dr blog, i caught an eye for some dr in the hospital. any hints on how to approach him? he is still an MO so thinks he is not married.
ReplyDeletei am not a medical staff though, so your previous article not very helpful.
wah, you all really think i pimp isit?
ReplyDeleteDr Bl Og, What will happen to the dr if he/she dates his/her patient?
ReplyDeletewe cannot date our patients, it can lead to very horrible consequences. The hospital will do nasty things to us because it is unethical to date your patients. it is the same reason as why teachers cannot date their students.
ReplyDeleteNurses don't act blur. Probably the nurse mentioned is a novice.
ReplyDeleteI also witnessed blur doctors at work. Instead of making fun of them, I helped them to the best of my ability.
Doctors, nurses and allied health must all work hand in hand. We are all in a team.
Babies can take pills meh? I mean, really?
ReplyDeletemy consultant told me that new doctors now adays have no future, so don't join medicine cos its oversaturated. what do you think about it dr blog?
ReplyDeletehur hur....i hope not all nur-si like that....
ReplyDeletedr blog you are definitely not a pimp. should say matchmaker. pro gahmen policies mah to create more married couples and hence more babies.
ReplyDeletethink they should organise those matchmaking sessions in the hospital or across hospitals, so that those single and lonely souls have a place to mix around
