Doctors come with the whole spectrum of āfunny behaviorā. But since they had almost no time to PRACTICE being funny while on their way to the MD, their jokes are often pretty poor.
In my twenties (~60 years ago) I think I was the butt of a joke. Doctor needed to do sigmoidoscopy on me. He placed the instrument up my fanny then asked me if I could reach back and hold it for a moment. He stepped out and brought in his nurse and introduced us rather formally.
When I had my first one they were still using the drug that left you awake up until just before the procedure. As they were getting me ready for the doc, I said āI know it seems drastic, but Iāve looked everywhere else for my keysā.
Never had gastrologist or general surgeon do that to me, the Dr. speak to me first then I be rolled by bed in surgery room, position and then sedated briefly, then trying to wake, Dr. come in with the results.
This is amusing but totally inaccurate. When you have a colonoscopy, you are āunderā during the actual procedure. Or maybe itās a projection of Earlās fears.

Doctor, not funny. Too many people really dread a colonoscopy, to be cheered by a rabbit trick.

Is it benign?

If he let him do a colonoscopy without being put under he deserves whatever the doctor throws at him

Docās use of tenses is confusing. Maybe theyāre still in pre-op stuff.

That test is like a car going the wrong way down a one-way street. Believe me. I know.

No, my GI pulled a major funny joke on me: he used a non-network anesthesiologist and stuck me with a $980 bill.
Well, maybe they thought it was funny, but I could do without the laughā¦ :-\

I doubt that Earl would know about Yelp, but if he did, I think I know what kind of rating he would give this doctor!
bittenbyknittin about 3 years ago
Sounds like something my doctor would do. I think he went into gastro for the poop jokes.
Buck B about 3 years ago
My first colonoscopy, I had an anesthesiologist named āMel Brooksā. True.
biblioholic Premium Member about 3 years ago
If it takes that guy an hour to do a routine colonoscopy, find another gastroenterologist!

One colonoscopy I had 15 years ago I was able to watch the procedure on small screen as the doctor described the journey of a small camera.

You canāt drive home from the hospital. My honey brought me home.
She said āāYou feeling alright? They said you might be sleepy.āā (Itās noon time.)
Me āāNah. I feel fine.āā I then sat in my big chair and conked out until dinnertime.
Please believe them, itās not safe to drive after the procedure.
