Patient Error?

There's nothing worse than a snotty doctor's
receptionist who insists you tell her what is wrong

in a

room full of other patients. I know you
all have experienced this, and here's the way
one old guy handled it.



An 86 year old man walked into a crowded doctor's
office. As he approached the desk, the receptionist

said,

"Yes sir, what are you seeing the doctor for
today?"

"There's something wrong with my penis," he
replied.



The receptionist became irritated and said, "You
shouldn't
come into a crowded office and say things like


that."

"Why not? You asked me what was wrong and I told
you," he said.

The receptionist replied,

"You've obviously caused
some embarrassment in this room full of people.
You should have said there is something

wrong
with your ear or something and then discussed the
problem further with the doctor in private."

The man

walked out, waited several minutes and then

reentered. The receptionist smiled smugly and
asked,
"Yes?"



"There's something wrong with my ear," he stated.

The receptionist nodded approvingly and smiled,


knowing he had taken her advice.

"And what is wrong with your ear, Sir?"

"I can't piss out of it," the

man replied.
