One of our aarogyan was recently down with FLU. Since we are dealing with a health portal the aarogyan decided to use his health knowledge to cure himself. So he went to the Drugstore and bought himself Fludac as a medication for FLU.

Doctor Jargon
What He Says! | What He Means! |
This should be taken care of right away. | “I’d planned a trip to Hawii next month but this is so easy and profitable that I want to fix it before the trip itself”. |
Welllllll, what have we here… | Since he hasn’t the foggiest notion of what it is, the Doctor is hoping you will give him a clue. |
“We’ll see” | “First I have to check my malpractice insurance”. |
“Let me check your medical history”. | “I want to see if you have paid your last bill before spending any more time with you”. |
“Why don’t we make another appointment later in the week”. | “I’m playing golf this afternoon” or “I need the money, so I’m charging you for another office visit”. |
“We have some good news and some bad news”. | The good news is he’s going to buy that new BMW, and the bad news is you’re going to pay for it |
“I’d like to prescribe a new drug”. | “I’m writing a paper and would like to use you for a guinea”. |
“If it doesn’t clear up in a week, give me a call”. | “I don’t know what the hell it is. May be it will go away by itself”. |
“That’s quite a nasty looking wound”. | “I think I’m going to throw up”. |
“This should fix you up”. | “The drug salesman guaranteed that it kills all symptoms” |
“There is a lot of that going around”. | “My God, that’s the third one this week. I’d better learn something about this”. |
