So it’s such an emergency that your demanding to be seen “right now”

But not that much of an emergency where your willing to wait for the results of the test (that you demanded)

A week after I posted this I had patient pass away after multiple rounds of CPR.

I had to use their thumb print to unlock their phone to inform the family.

On their Lock Screen was a picture of a their newborn.

Almost three years in and these things never get any easier.

Metoprolol is NOT a blood pressure medication.

Tramadol is a BAD pain killer.

There’s NO such thing transaminitis.

Thanks for coming to my talk.

PSA: If you need a work note just say that!

No need for an elaborate story.

Just say “doc, I’m sick and need an excuse from work.”

Thassit!

Save us both the time please and thanks.

Houston has got to have one of the most poorly designed freeway systems in the states.

If I’m not missing my exit I’m intentionally getting routed into a tollway.

9/10 for missing a game system and cardboard box to rest drinks and eat on.

Had a very similar set up in my first 1bd room.

Never forget when I upgraded from lawn chairs to a futon.

Couldn’t tell me I wasn’t rich lol

This goes 1 of 2 ways…

1. Your completely understanding of the specialty dynamic and can effectively/respectfully communicate and accept the plan we make together.

2. Your not really a doctor and your going to make this visit as difficulty as possible.

No in between lol

Lyft driver had an alert saying they’re deaf or hard of hearing.

Turns out they just speak Spanish and can hear perfectly fine. 🤷🏾‍♂️
