TOINKS! of My Practice
Numero Uno:
While I was writing her prescription, Mrs D. softly leaned over my desk and asked,
" Doc, if you do not mind, what do you place on your face?" I was slightly taken aback by her question.
Mrs D was already in her late 50's but did not look her age. Her facial pores were fine and I can barely appreciate any wrinkles. She struck me as someone who seriously paid attention to her skin. Why would she ask for tips on skin care from me?
Feeling a little flattered, I answered her, " I rarely place anything on my face Ma'am. I just wash with soap and water at night and apply sunblock in the morning."
She took a deep breath and said emphatically, " DOC, YOU SHOULD! "
She proceeded to give me skin care tips after pointing out the imperfections on my face. TOINK!
Numero Dos:
Me: "Has your mother lost weight?"
Daughter: "Yes doc, a lot"
Me: "Like how much? How many kilos?"
Daughter: " I am not sure Doc, but she used to be as huge as you." TOINK!
Numero Tres:
Matchmaker: " Doc, the nephew I wanted to pair you with told me that you have not returned his texts. He thinks you are not interested."
Me: " I am sorry sir. Probably next time..."
Matchmaker: " It's ok doc. I told him that you are very busy, I noticed you do not even have time to comb your hair." TOINK!
