As always , Im looking for the funny side of life.

We were discussing at work some of the unusual way my patients pronounce things to do with feet



Question to my receptionist "How much for a constellation ?"



To the Pod "Do you treat Bunyips?"


To the Pod " I think I have one of those things that Gardeners get , A planters wart "


And one of my favourites.

The patient sits in the treatment chair and asks

"Would you like me to take my shoes off?"

A; No way , super Pod will use his X ray vision:bang:


Looking forward to hearing you stories

Ha, yes ....Pt has been coming for years insists that he wears "orthontics"- sounds like some dental type of orthotic (given up trying to correct him)

 

Just generally misunderstanding things makes me chuckle.

A patient who I have been treating for routine nail care as a home visit for nearly 13 years calls me Rachel each time I visit, even though I write her next appt. on her calendar, 'Mandy (feet) 1pm.'

The receipt has my name, business details etc. I used to correct her each time but I think I will remain Rachel to her.

I see one lady who has had surgery for her blocked archeries :empathy:

My favourite was the patient whose pregnant daughter had gone into labour the day before I saw her & told me her daughter had been 'Having contraptions every 4 minutes!'



All the best,

Mandy/Rachel

 

I have a patient who has a Rt Girdlestone on one side requiring a 14cm raise and on the the other side has a recurrently "DISCO-lating" hip.

Poor chap!

 

Working in a hospital one of the reception staff, who is a masseuse on the side, declared she had Plantar Fasciitis a condition that had plagued her for a long time, she had also informed some of her massarge patients when they showed signs of this condition. The condition effects the area sub 2-3 met heads and increases the thickness of the skin till it is quite hard and sometimes uncomfortable.
Information from the net

 

Speaking of pregnant women, we had a young to be father in picking up shoes for his pregnant wife.

"She still hasn't had it?"

"No, they are going to put her in hospital tomorrow and reduce her"

l think he meant induce but hey it has the same net effect:dizzy:

 

One of my favourites was a patient that called me a Podopotrist. And I'm sure we've all met men who have had problems with their prostrate.
