‘I’m A Pretty Big Deal Around Here’ Says Doctor

A senior Physician in A Western Suburbs hospital has made it clear to a prospective knee surgery recipient that it’s best to brush aside concerns over the benefit of surgery versus non surgical options.

“There there Darl, now is not the time to be worried about whether this surgery is necessary. Now is the time for me to rush you through a consent process so I can make my 2pm tee time at Terry Hills. Look sweetie, I’ve been doing these clean out scopes on mildly arthritic knees like yours for decades. Don’t worry about that research comparing placebos scopes to actual scopes. I promise you in all my years there’s never been a placebo surgeon as snazzy as a real deal surgeon like me-haha. But seriously, I’m kind of a big deal around here. So hop along back home now and I’ll see you next week in theatre”.
