Hints from Hel...Jennifer!

As a public service, I'd like to offer a few suggestions for the many urologists whom I'm absolutely positive read my blog each and everyday...

Please offer magazines that possibly might interest your few female patients...especially when making them wait for one hour and fifteen minutes in a very tiny room. I am unable to read Field & Stream, Sports Illustrated, Car and Driver, and Men's Health. My eyes can't focus on things in which I have no interest.

Don't be afraid of your pregnant, female patients. No, most of us females don't have dysfunctioning, limp dicks, not even close. But, it's highly unlikely that our unborn babies are going to suddenly fall from our female loins. We probably aren't even going to suddenly go into labor.

It's not necessary to have that many posters of penises on your walls. I can certainly understand not wanting to further frustrate your "dysfunctional" male patients with a bunch of vagina posters. But really, I don't need to see that many diagrams of the male anatomy.

When your nurse comes in to the tiny room to remove the stent, she shouldn't be surprised that I'm wearing underwear. No one asked me to undress, so therefore, I remained clothed. Do the limp dicked male patients automatically derobe while waiting for the doc? 'Cause, see, that would be weird.

I hope that I have offered some useful and insightful advice to assist you in your treatment of female, vagina-ed patients.

***I'm slowly working my Google Reader down. I still have sooooo many posts to catch up on (as of right now I have only 83 to read) AND so many new readers to visit! Thanks for your patience!!!

****And...are any of you having problems with being notified of new comments via email? I just discovered 3! new people who had commented, but I never received notification?! So, I guess I also have some investigating to do...I don't want to miss any of you!

23 People are even more brilliant:

Like going to a urologist isn't lousy enough, you get stuck surrounded by man-stuff... I'll keep your hints in mind if I ever decide to give up accounting to become a urologist.

I've had that comment issue too...I find comments that I never knew existed in my dashboard...Dunno?

Urologists. I hate them. They are an evil tribe of weirdos who like urethras. Sickos.

Glad you are home and feeling better!

You crack me up!

Too funny! 'limp dicked' you have a way with words Jennifer!

I had a problem a while back with blogger sending my e=mail verifications to the person who left the comment, saying the comment couldn't be delivered, yet it was. Weird shit.

Just wanted to add that occasionally, my email notifications for comments go in my spam folder.

This is so true, I hate going into any doctor room these days. Heck, even while I was pregnant they had them in our rooms. We are women, we read women magazines. I don't care about fishing and don't want to think about seafood while pregnant.

hoo boy... that is so funny. And I'm right there with you on the underwear thing... if no one tells me explicitly to take 'em off, THEY STAY ON!

Doctor's offices are all the same and have nothing to offer anyone who waits

Again.....too funny.

Blogger's been pissing me off lately too.

Very funny post. I worked for a urologist over a winter break one year. People share way too much with the receptionist is all I can say.

Strangely enough, there are copies of Golf magazine and Field & Stream all over my OBs office, too. I know they're trying to keep the waiting dads happy, but a few more copies of Pregnancy or Fit Pregnancy would be nice - those are always the first ones people grab in the waiting room.

Maddy said...

Good grief! I have no idea what you could possibly be referring to!

[could you pass me the smelling salts on your way out?]

Annie said...

Yuck - there are so many 'ologists' over here that I hear of new ones on an almost daily basis. And I'm so with you on the underwear thing - can you imagine if you'd sat there sans knickers and you hadn't needed to be? lol!

Sugar Kane said...

Great advice. I just hope I never have to use it!!

i think you should get Tate a plaster penis mold (like the preggo belly ones) just for all you've been through--i'm sure the urology office would know where to get em. ;0)
p.s. in regards to "panties off"--have you noticed that the paper "coverups" at the OB office are getting smaller? or are we getting bigger? I can't believe i am still in this pregnancy thing--i am over taking my pants off--ugh!

mommiebear2 said...

You are so friggin funny! I think Id be a little uncomfortable with penises on the wall.

Heh...several years ago when I was making weekly visits to the urologist (who out of my three doctors was the only one with a good sense of humor), I had the distinct pleasure of hearing the good doctor prep and preform a rectal exam (how glad am I that I don't have a prostate?!!!) on an older male patient through the thin exam room walls. Nothing but good times right there.
I'm totally with you--unless it is specifically stated otherwise, the clothes don't come off.
