My med student today had never heard the song 867-5309….I sent her home, can’t have that kind of lack of experience in the OR.

Patient, waking up: “We’re done??”
Anesthesiologist: “Yeah! You fell asleep, missed it!”
Patient: “How did it go?”
Anesthesiologist: “The other doctor will talk to you when you’re more awake. Anything we tell you right now you may not remember… including that.”
Patient: “… we’re done??”

One of the real PITA behaviors of some surgeons is having the circulator answer his phone while they are operating.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Ortho Surgeon: “Can you check that text for me?”
Circulator: (looks at the phone for a second) “It’s Sinnamon, with an ‘S’, she says you left your wallet at her place last night, and thanks for the extra $100.”(Ortho Surgeon looked totally bewildered).
I work with some funny people.
Maybe that’s how you get the surgeon to stop asking you to answer their phone!wrote on 7 Nov 2023, 03:33 last edited by@George-K said in Hay Bach! The "OR Quotes" Twitter Feed:

Me to surgeon: “How’s it going?”
Surgeon: “Can’t complain. I mean, I’m GOING to but…”
Me: “You know the difference between surgeons & puppies? Puppies eventually stop whining”

"I don’t care what anyone says, placing the crash cart right outside the patient’s room to ward off “evil spirits” saves lives."
