Today at the doctor's ...

I once went to see my lovely young lady doctor and as she leaned towards me to take my BP she banged her elbow on the arm of her chair, caught her funny bone and was in dreadful pain, and went white as a sheet. Needless to say I asked her if she was OK - she was very quiet and then surfaced and told me she is a "fainter" and was lucky not to have conked out!!!

sparklefizz- and it just shows who terrible the NHS has become- sad. No wonder doctors, nurses and care staff are in such a bad way.

Sad.

Dh asked our lovely gp how he was - 15 minutes later he asked dh how he was!

I asked her how SHE was - and she was quite moved. Should do it more often with all care people

Jura2 In theory - lovely - but having had to wait 3 weeks for an appointment with my GP and finally get my allotted 10 minutes of time with him, I just can't waste a precious minute in finding out how he is .... unless I ask as I am leaving, in which case his reply won't impinge on my consultation time.

Same as when I asked our lovely minister how she was.
