I don't work in medicine, I'm a chronic illness patient so I picked up stuff from extended hospital stays and frequent hospital visits lol I get *some* med terms particularly GI since I have severe UC and I am talking to GI docs and hematology for iron deficiency anemia the most of all my docs and I have spent weeks with nurses at this point so I get more out of nurse comedy too. This is honestly a realistic depiction of medical from what I've seen lol
As I recall, from the old days of doing hospital transcription, there was a lot of professed “appreciation for being allowed the opportunity to participate in the care of” other doctors’ patients… 😁
That's so weird to me. They should just all work together to provide the best care possible, not draw territory lines around people and be extra gracious when allowed to cross. That type of attitude seems like an unnecessary barrier to the best quality of care.
Oh, do one on: “Please see this very pleasant lady...” They never say “very” about the actually pleasant patients. That’s code for : “They’re going to no-show and probably threaten to sue you.”
A doctor I work with said she really thought she had interesting cardio cases until she realized literally every consult had "this is an interesting case" 😂
I love the notes, “thank you for the consult and being allowed to participate in the care of this patient”, then I as the nurse call this Dr. s and get the response, “why are you calling me”? 🙄
I'm a nurse, I'm just grateful if any doctor writes in the notes clearly enough for me to make out what specialty they are. I'd ask for full sentences but let's not push it. :D
As a graphic designer I gotta sign off emails with "thank you for helping us improve our brand" or my boss thinks I'm being passive aggressive towards package printers.
This is hilarious and accurate! I did medical transcription for many years and this was always said. When it wasn’t, I even wondered what happened. Just as I’d infer when they said “this very interesting patient” that they were likely a pain to treat, for whatever reason! 😂
Thats why you add a smiley face to insure it sounds genuine and to relieve anxiety. I always feel like even the nicest thing I type sounds slightly sarcastic.
Lmao i remember greeting my senior doctors and they wouldn't even say it back to me and would act grumpy but when i stopped greeting them they literally called me out during our morning endorsements why i stopped greeting them, telling me that i lack manners 😂
Reminds me of the letters you get from consultants getting progressively kinder and kinder, e.g. thank you for referring this delightful woman and for kindly organising the x-ray. I had an incredible time talking to her and literally cannot wait to see her again in 6 months.
...as a patient I should be thanked for the interesting case.. nay, not thanked, but praised.. we're out here 24/7/365 figuring out new ways to get into the hospital and all we ever get is some over priced treatment and a "you'll be discharged soon"..
3 months in the hospital for g.i. bleeds... ulcers rupture causing perforations... acid damages muscles and intestines... beware cause it doesn't get better....
As a scribe, I only had one doc that regularly thanked other docs in their notes. At the end of every new consult note their little blurb they’d want me to put was “thank you for referring this patient to my practice. I appreciate the kind consultation” and it always made my heart happy
@@violetskies14 when i went to London to study english i was told to always say thank you and please. In my mind i thought well, thank you but I'm not a barbarian. Then i realized why i was told that. People even thanked people who thanked them! That was cute ngl
Oh god this is so true, I review consults and assessments before admission to my transitional Care and I noticed almost all doctors thank for being involved or day it's interesting etc. even when it's obvious is not. I didn't realize it was a thing lol
As an RN I've noticed over the years that the consulting physician always writes thank you for the consult, never realized that it was expected though!
Omg!! I have always thought this when I read doctors notes. I remember reading them when I was first in hospital out of nursing school thinking “why are they blowing so much smoke up each other’s asses?” Then I remember thinking “did they talk like that at the annual Christmas party”?
As a new nurse I would always try and read all the patients notes and I always thought I was funny when doctors would leave little thank you’s at the end of a note. I found this very funny. I just love your content!!
This is so funny- I had a copy of my medical records awhile back and I remember thinking how weird it was that the dermatologist wrote “thank you for this interesting consult” at the end of the summary of our visit. I guess I’m not that interesting after all 😂
So i know that every job has its drama, and unless you work that field you probably wouldt understand it. This guy does a great job and i really feel like im there
Funny! I read notes for a consult years ago regarding whatever I was in the hospital for. At the end it said that thing: "thank you for this interesting blah bla blah." I was kind of proud, thinking my case was interesting! 💥💨😊😲
I have always thought this "thank you for the consult" thing was silly. See it in Dr notes all the time. They will often refer to it as an "interesting case" as well. The thanks really should be going the other way, don't you think?
Oh my god. So they DO do this on purpose! Always thought it was weird. My favorite are doctor notes where English not first language. I read them for the LOLs. 😂🤣
Do one on the patient who had to wait 3 hours to pee and gave up and crawled to the bathroom anyway...this was me on Tuesday. The nurse did my vitals, made sure I was stable, and I was completely abandoned for 3 whole hours...and they hid the call button on the floor in the corner behind the computer....it seemed intentional...they caught me when I first crawled out of bed because I was struggling to unhook my iv while I was on the floor. PUT ME BACK IN BED and left me again!!!! But they unhooked my iv so I crawled out anyway. THe nurse caught me again. Argued with me about crawling on the floor. I won so he got me a wheel chair. Wheeled me into the bathroom. Left me to fend for myself with the toilet. I pulled the emergency cord for help and he came and got me and put me back in bed. Told me not to crawl on the floor. I said it's better than peeing on myself. He said crawling on the floor was the same thing.
You don’t know how often I’ve wanted to study medicine just to get videos like these, like if there funny now I can’t imagine how good it is when you understand it
This is SO weird! In Israel you do not thank consults in your notes... It's meant to be professional and pretty straightforward. No fluff and sucking up. Also as soon as they consult, if they aren't following through, they'll never read your note. They've consulted and that is it.
"hey did you not thank cardiology for the consult?" I had to stop the video, started laughing so hard i couldn't keep watching. The instant incredulous inquiry and done with a wide shot.
I didn't understand like half of those words but still entertaining, it's great when people use RU-vid shorts / TikTok for entertainment and combine it with showing something about their job
