   Because people continue to ask questions and I am continuing to answer them.

2. "My Nurses"

   HairyMurse replied to HairyMurse's topic in Relations

   I don't think it's that, I still don't like it when it comes out of females. I just wish we could all call each other by our proper titles. E.g. Bob will be your nurse today," or "Bill will be the physcian on your case." I know I'm WAY over thinkin...

3. "My Nurses"

   HairyMurse replied to HairyMurse's topic in Relations

   Why do you call them "My", and not introduce them by their titles? "Dr. Paul is going to be your physcian, he'll be in shortly. To use "my" only makes sense to me when that person is providing direct care to you. "My dentist told me to brush my teet...

4. "My Nurses"

   HairyMurse replied to HairyMurse's topic in Relations

   This was exactly my thought, but to each their own.

5. "My Nurses"

   HairyMurse replied to HairyMurse's topic in Relations

   I suppose "my girls" sounds much worse than "my nurses."

6. "My Nurses"

   HairyMurse replied to HairyMurse's topic in Relations

   Okay that definitely makes sense!

7. "My Nurses"

   HairyMurse replied to HairyMurse's topic in Relations

   Would you say my doctor/surgeon? Or is that taboo? Thanks for the responses everyone, I mostly wanted to hear what your thoughts were on this topic. I know a few people that this bugs, but all of you have valid points.

8. "My Nurses"

   HairyMurse replied to HairyMurse's topic in Relations

   Yes I believe he was referring to the nurse working in his office.

9. "My Nurses"

   HairyMurse replied to HairyMurse's topic in Relations

   Yeah that makes sense. The more I think about it, that's probably the easiest way to explain who is who. I suppose I just didn't like the docs way of stating it and the negative (superior sounding) tone of his voice. But I'm sure his intention wasn't...

10. "My Nurses"

    HairyMurse replied to HairyMurse's topic in Relations

    Yeah I understand what you mean. Although it was at a large hospital and the nurses didn't work for him, they worked for the hospital. I'm mostly curious because one of the nurses rolled her eyes at him. We got into talking and both agreed that the...

11. "My Nurses"

    HairyMurse posted a topic in Relations

    When I was in the OR the other day for a minor procedure (I was the patient), I asked the MD a question and he said "I'll ask one of my nurses." Then again, before I was discharged, he informed me to contact "My nurse" to set up a post op appointmen...

    HairyMurse replied to HairyMurse's topic in Professionalism

    Thanks! Abrasive and to the point is my style! (Of course I would never treat anyone disrespectfuly). I have a hard time biting my tongue, however.

14. A Job That's Cut Out for Me

    HairyMurse posted a topic in Professionalism

    Hey everyone, I'm sure this topic has been posted, but I'm not even sure what to search for. Basically--I am wondering where to work and what specialty would be best for me--given my personality. I hear a lot of horror stories of patient satisfa...
