There are certain people in one’s life that one doesn’t forget. One in particular is a professor in Medical School who loved to tell personal stories. This personal story, I feel is poignant to many different professions and life circumstances.
He spoke about how people responded when they heard he was a doctor. People just seem to forget where they were at. He could be at a store, or a guest at a friend’s house, people would just come up with personal medical questions. Tired of it, he spoke of a time when a woman who after she heard he was a dermatologist, she started talking about her skin problems.
She asked him for his opinion/consultation and he bluntly told her to undress.
“Here?” the woman asked,
“If you are asking me for a doctor’s consult here,” the doctor answered
“Then yes, here!”
