my leash
I would say 75% of the time, it's to deal with something stupid.
Like pharmacy calling to ask me "doctor, did you really mean to write for 70mg of diuril?"
Yes. That's what I wrote. and that's what I meant. Thanks for calling to verify. and interrupting my noon lecture.
Another all-time favorite is when a nurse calls "Patient Jones has temperature of 37.5 C"
Hmm. That would be normal. Thanks for letting me know. Please continue to page me with normal vital signs, every four hours.
I'm being kinda mean but in truth, those pages are better than the scary ones like "Patient Cuteness is having increased trouble breathing, please come evaluate quickly." The main thought in my head at that point is "how soon should I be calling the senior?" :)
