Do All Proctologists Really Joke Like This?

Members do not see this ad.

So- I'm shadowing this friend of the family- a proctologist (only friend who is a physician, so not many choices, ya know).

Anyways, after spending a day with the guy, I found we talked a lot about the a$$. In particular, the physician continually would say after a check-up, "Watch out for those dingleberries!" The patients would smile, give him a high-five, and leave. WTF?!?

Before leaving he was all like, "You should check your own ass once a week."

I was like, "For what?"

He says, "Oh... YOU know."

I reply, "Abnormalities?"

He shakes his head. "No son.. for a$$ clowns. Good luck in your future kid."

I observed an upper GI endoscopy once, and the gastroenterologist made poop jokes the whole time (the patient was under conscious sedation). And it was obvious he thought these jokes were *really* funny. Maybe there is poop joke training during fellowship.

dude moops, you gotta gimme the name of this guy, he's awesome. between the dingleberries, the high five, and the ass clowns, he's the greatest. I only hope that one day I can aspire to be a physician like him...

Giggity

Well, not all proctologists are that way -- there are the ones who commit suicide. I'd be making jokes all day, too, if I were a cheeky bum-looker. You followed him one day. Think about it -- he has to put up with that shlt every day for the rest of his life.

Yep. All surgeons talk about balls, and all proctologists talk about asses. What's next? You gonna shadow a gynocologist that makes ***** jokes the whole time? 🙄

 

[moops]

So... this obstetrician that lives across the street gives me this funny look and makes a little *pop* sound with his lips whenever he sees me. Is that normal?

*Lighten up Polar Girl*

And yes, I am 100% sure that gynecologists (even female ones) talk excessively about "*****"

One of my father's best friends is an OB/GYN. Years ago there were in a theater watching the latest James Bond movie. When "***** Galore" introduced herself to James, the OB/GYN had such an attack of laughter that they almost got kicked out of the theater.

So, I guess there really IS a market for Dr. Jung's Anal Mirror. . .

I agree. A doctor who is comfortable enough to joke around with his patients is a goldmine (and let's face it, with proctology, how can you not crack jokes all day?). Most of the doctors I shadowed were so hellbent on being "professional" that the experience becomes a bit stuffy.

The biggest fear I have about all this is that I'll burn out and lose my sense of humor. I'm glad to see that some still maintain theirs.

lol...good one.

A doctor with a sense of humor, why not? It shows they have a another side than the serious md all the time. I admire that. Anywayz, here's a joke that relates

So a proct. goes into the bank to deposit his check. The banker asks him to sign the back. The proct. reaches into his jacket and pulls out a thermometer and begins trying to sign his check. The bank teller notices this and says "Excuse me Sir, your trying to sign your check with a thermometer." The proctologist replys and says, "Damn it, some dingus stole my pen again!"

LOL
