An Accident and Emergency Department in Birmingham boasts a Nurse Payne
Nurse Hacker scrubs regularly in a London Operating Department
Sister De'Ath walks the corridors of a hospice in Victoria
Does Annie Beaver still work in Obstetrics in New York?
Mrs. Ake, a retired RN, was a specialist nurse in rheumatology
Kathy Foley was the head of the Catheter Insertion Team (back when they had those in the old days).
Dr Hui (pronounced "Wee") was a urologist whose wife, a nurse, worked as his office manager. Her name was Pi (pronounced "Pee"). Nurse Cox worked for a different team.
Chris Feely always favoured complementary therapies - especially therapeutic massage, while Nurse Fang was more at home with Cosmetic Surgery.
Ed worked with a nun who's last name was Fuchs. He did not know how to pronounce her name - so he asked. And he wanted to die.
Mary Slaughter could never get a post on the Surgical Unit, and Nurse Cutts was never the 'First Pick' Midwife.
Sharon Ward - when she gets promoted - will be Sr. Ward.
Not forgetting Melina, who works on a general medical ward and Nurse Nurse - she goes where she's sent!
Drs Ken Hurts, Mickey Finn (anesthesiologist), Loveless (AIDS specialist), Kidd (pediatrician), Cutter (OB-GYN), Boyles (surgeon). I knew about half of these, Hurts I saw on a billboard somewhere in the midwest, and the rest are from nurse colleagues who met them somewhere.
My very favorite is neither a doctor or a nurse--Elder Dull, who was once pastor of the SDA church in Boring, OR.
My pediatrician was Dr. Metzger - doesn't sound ominous unless you learn German and find out the translation is Dr. Butcher (Metzger is the German word for butcher)
