Medical mumble jumble. . .

The Endocrinology class went 'blank'.

"That's why I always said, we shouldn't be having Stethoscope as our symbol; rather a Ryle's tube would suit better."

The class still; blank.

- Dr. Murlidhar Verma; on spoon feeding college education.

p.s.  Ryle's tube (rylz) n. a thin flexible tube of rubber or plastic, which is inserted into the stomach through the mouth or nose of a patient and is used for withdrawing fluid from the stomach or for giving a test meal. [ J. A. Ryle (1889–1950), British physician]

Door creaks to open into the dark room.

Dr. Krishna Rao: Soo, why are you late by 22 minutes. What's your excuse?
No response.
Dr. KR: At least tell me the last night's foot ball match's score!
...[No response. Out of coverage area.]
P S: Chile!
KR: Chh. . .i. . .leee??

An 'Ayoo' in the Ophthal Septic OT. . .

We enter into the 'SEPTIC' Theatre terribly awaiting renovation, obviously! It looks like a kitchen filled Operation theatre stuff; damn it!


Patient undergoing {multiple Chalazion incision and curettage}; moaning, groaning, with clenched fists!

Dr. Lavanya Rao: You have to wait. If you don't cooperate, I can't finish and you'll have to come again and again.

Patient: (Howls and kicks in the air) Ha ha ha! That's true but (shouts in pain again) shhh. . . .ah ahhh, it's terrible madam, unbearable! Ayooo! Why don't you give an injection or something[ raising his hand to his eye and gesturing a poke in poke out.]

Dr. L R: I already gave two.

Patient: [Again, in his normal tone] Ooh! You already removed the big one!

Technician[ to students]- It's over. Change your scrubs. You can't go back to the OT directly from the Septic theater.


p.s.-"Septic" OT; so much for the name!

 

". . . . . .is the percentage.
It is not my figure. It is Davidson's.
