I went to have my knee checked after a bad accident. Well the secretary said to me there is only one orthopaedic surgeon to see in the building today, cos he had a cancellation. She told me his name and I thought it was French or something.

Anyway finally arrived there and looked at the name. It said "Dr Butcher!"

I laughed with him about this, he said he hadn't intended on becoming an ortho surgeon, but he said 'Don't let the name put you off, I'm actually quite good.'

And he was :)
