Well, I waited two and a half hours to see the doc, and guess what? He just wanted to talk to me about the surgery for about 5 minutes. However, I did get one good thing out of the man. He's always very serious and of course I always try to make him laugh, which sometimes I do.
My phone rang while he and I were talking and of course I have the theme from Love Boat as my ring tone. Well, I let it ring as to not interrupt him, and all of a sudden he starts dancing a little on his short rolling doctor's stool. He started laughing so hard I was kind of taken aback. The only time I've ever seen him laugh like that was more out of nervousness, I think. After he had given me a gyn exam, I came out of the room and he and his nurse were standing there. She said "Did everything go ok?" and I said "Oh god, it was HORRIBLE.. he was so cruel!" and he stood there with this look of horror... complete and utter shock, until he realized I was kidding. Then he laughed and laughed like a man half crazed. I'm sure it was the laugh of a man who just narrowly escaped a trillion dollar malpractice suit.
