Dr V

I’ve had an X-ray of my knees” the patient tells me.

I search through her file for the results, but can’t find any. I notice that she had an X-ray of her wrist last month, and ask her about that.

What? No, I’ve never had an X-ray of my wrist” she insists

I read out her name, address and date of birth from the report. “It says it was ordered by Dr V ... have you been to see Dr V in the last few weeks?

She thinks for a while, and then her face lights up, “Oh, is he that big handsome fellow?

Sigh.
