That's probably the same strange word I was using! (I've never watched her so I don't know for sure).

good luck man, I hope everything goes great for you.
The best high-risk OB at our hospital used to always tell the patient "I'm Dr. ____, at your cervix." Most people didn't pick up on what he'd actually said. He and I became friends after delivering a couple of my kids and I went back into the OBs break room. His locker door stood wide open and there was nothing in there except a SCUBA mask and snorkel.

Re: Miss pronounciations of medications and medical terms!Way to Funny!!!!!!!!

okay, so I guess everyone driving me crazy with the word "Phenergran" is mild compared to everyone else here. It drives me crazy when even the paramedics can't pronounce Phenergan!


rgroyner1rnbsn, I hope your surgery goes well!
