A feisty 97 year old patient
My short and balding, but gracefully aging, neurology attending
ATTENDING
When was the last time you saw your doctor?
FEISTY PATIENT
Pshaw! I don't need a doctor. I've only seen a doctor TWICE in all these years. And I didn't even need the checkup!
ATTENDING
Well, I think you need an internist now for sure. I'll make sure we set you up with someone. Do you prefer a man or a woman?
FEISTY PATIENT
A man, of course! Can you make him young and good-looking??
ATTENDING
Hm. You want a young, good-looking internist. Well, I'm sorry ma'am - I'm a neurologist, so we'll have to find you someone else.
