John Ranalletta Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 True story. This morning, I accompanied my wife to the endo center for her routine colonoscopy. While waiting in a very busy lobby, one of the office personnel announced, without a hint of humor or sarcasm, "The doctors are running a little behind." Link to comment

John Ranalletta Posted November 13, 2008 Author Share Posted November 13, 2008 ...but I'm sure they took care of everyone in the end...... The proctologist was a master of innuendo. This was our first experience in the post op area of the endo center. Previously, we used the hospitals outpatient surgical center. Standing in my wife's recovery cube amidst a dozen post op patients being encouraged to fart, I was reminded of ...or, was it an UnRally? Link to comment

philbytx Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 After I was diagnosed with colon cancer, I had a bunch of my insides removed and, when visiting the specialist, I called myself "Mr Semi Colon" and, once I got the all clear from him, i then said that I was now, "The Perfect Asshole" Link to comment
Mike Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 True story. This morning, I accompanied my wife to the endo center for her routine colonoscopy. While waiting in a very busy lobby, one of the office personnel announced, without a hint of humor or sarcasm, "The doctors are running a little behind." Last year, I relented and had my first routine colonoscopy. Of course, you have to go in to visit the doctor first, so that when he screws up and punctures your colon he can point to the documentation that he told you all about that possibility. When I pulled into the Midwest Endoscopy Center parking lot, I couldn't help but notice the sign that said DELIVERIES IN THE REAR Link to comment

We non lawyers get the short form. As I remember it reads, "If we screw up, tough." Link to comment

Dave McReynolds Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 "We praise the colorectal surgeon Misunderstood and much maligned Slaving away in the heart of darkness Working where the sun don't shine Respect the colorectal surgeon It's a calling few would crave Lift up your hands and join us Let's all do the finger wave When it comes to spreading joy There are many techniques Some spread joy to the world And others just spread cheeks Some may think the cardiologist Is their best friend But the colorectal surgeon knows... He'll get you in the end! Why be a colorectal surgeon? It's one of those mysterious things. Is it because in that profession There are always openings? When I first met a colorectal surgeon He did not quite understand; I said, "Hey nice to meet you But do you mind? We don't shake hands." He sailed right through medical school Because he was a whiz Oh but he never thought of psychology Though he read passages. A doctor he wanted to be For golf he loved to play, But this is not quite what he meant... By eighteen holes a day! Praise the colorectal surgeon Misunderstood and much maligned Slaving away in the heart of darkness Working where the sun don't shine!" -George Bowser and Ricky Blue Link to comment

Gregori Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 An unnamed physician claims that the following are actual comments made by his patients (predominately male) before or after their colonoscopies: 1. 'Take it easy, Doc. You're boldly going where no man has gone before! 2. 'Find Amelia Earhart yet?' 3. 'Can you hear me NOW?' 4. 'Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?' 5. 'You know, in Arkansas , we're now legally married.' 6. 'Any sign of the trapped miners, Chief?' 7. 'You put your left hand in, you take your left hand out...' 8. 'Hey! Now I know how a Muppet feels!' 9. 'If your hand doesn't fit, you must quit!' 10. 'Hey Doc, let me know if you find my dignity.' 11. 'You used to be an executive at Enron, didn't you?' 12. 'God, now I know why I am not gay.' 13. 'How far up did you go? I now have a sore throat.' And the best one of all.. 14. 'Could you write a note for my wife saying that my head is not up there?
