K.C. Bolton: Translating Medical-Speak (if the shoe fits...)
"I'd like to run a few more tests."
(I want the sunroof option for my sports car)
"I'd like you to see a specialist."
(I have NO CLUE about what is wrong with you)
"Bend over."
(this doesn't need a translation...bad enough as it is!)
"Please make a follow-up appointment."
(Add a 5-disc CD changer to the options list)
"I have good news and bad news."
(I have bad news)
"Hmmm...that's interesting."
(What the heck is that thing??)
"You'll feel some slight discomfort."
(This is going to hurt like hell)
Entering my 'happy place' this weekend to cozy up to homework and look at space utilization for our primary care clinic.
