Very dubious about the medical care I received today...

The doctor was very clumsy when using medical instruments, only spoke basic English and looked blankly at me when I asked if he was registered with the GMC. I've since heard him shouting about absolutely nothing! I'm not really sure that my diagnosis of 'poorly arms spots' is trustworthy. However, I do approve of his prescribed course of treatment - bed rest - even if I wish it hadn't been accompanied by alternative treatments (being gently hit with a plastic hammer).

Why would you censor your own face but not your child's? 😕

It's the Clark Kent Law.

When he takes off his superhero costume and puts on a pair of glasses, he'll be a completely anonymous, mild mannered generic preschooler, whereas the OP presumably has a few people over the age of five who know her.

My “doctor” during the toddler years was far too fond of supplementing her medical kit with the contents of her tool kit. I frequently received “an indection” via a plastic drill and I remember having my ears tightened with a spanner once too……..

25 years old now and I’m sure you’ll be glad to know she is neither a doctor nor a tradesperson!

I miss those days…..

I must be getting old as doctors and police officers are looking younger and younger nowadays.
