The field of OB/GYN was genius for deciding not to see pregnant patients before 12 weeks pregnancy.
Think about the sheer number of vaginal bleeding, spotting, cramping, concern for baby, no concern for baby but thinking about concern, and so on they saved themselves from by purely deciding "nah"

The turn signal doesn’t count if you’re already changing lanes when it turns on
Also doesn’t count if you’re changing 3 lanes at once.
Hope that helps!!

Just because your doctor doesn't collapse into a ball and start crying doesn't mean they're not taking you seriously.
Also just because I don't order every test you'd like. Sometimes believe that doctor. It's ok.

Had a patient check in 3 days after an amygdalotomy for headache, cough, fatigue. Obviously gets rushed in immediately.
Long story short. Did you guys know tonsils are amígdala in Spanish?

Do surgeons specifically instruct their patients to present to ANOTHER ER for any complications on their surgery yesterday?
Hello I had surgery on the moon yesterday.
Here today with complications.
I don't remember the surgeon's name.
Or what surgery.

I actually like living here…but elevator culture here is abysmal
Everywhere else in the world you wait for whoever is on the elevator to get off before getting on.
Not here.
Actually, bonus points if you’re on FaceTime while pushing your way in.
