Who Said Anything About Fair?

Dear Medical Clinic,

I have been going to see doctors at your facility for as many years as I have been a mother and never, ever did the receptionist say, "Oh, you will like him. He is young and cute!" to me as I handed over my co-pay and inquired to which side of the office the new doctor was located.

Never.

My response?

"Aren't they supposed to be old and hairy?"

To which the middle-aged woman with the dyed hair behind the counter just chuckled. I guess she's old enough to have her opinions, and to share them with the masses - however, it might be prudent to request that she kindly keep her trap shut about a certain doctor's "hotness" prior to his new patient meeting him for the first time. Especially if he is only one year older than said patient.

I know because I looked him up.

Oh well, there could be worse things than going under the knife at the skilled hands of a surgeon who looks like this, right?


Signed,

Dr. X's New Patient

I'm having surgery tomorrow Internets, wish me luck! And yes, my doctor looks remarkably like the one Justin Chambers plays on Grey's Anatomy - but with darker hair. Go me.

Good luck. At least he's one year older than you. It's bad when they're younger.

Good luck and try not to giggle at his hotness while they are putting you under. Oh and try to watch what you say as you're coming out of it, I've been known to spout some mighty embarrassing things while under the influence of anesthesia.

Good luck! And DO NOT TALK while they are putting you under! I do because they tell you to, and I ALWAYS ALWAYS propose to at least the anesthesiologist. ALWAYS, Like since I was 12 ALWAYS. You know there should be a rule that they are old and hairy and maybe a little bit scary. Then maybe I would be less inclined to ask them all to run off to Vegas and get hitched!

I'd consider surgery, too, for a chance to be horizontal in the presence of THAT! ;) Good luck, tomorrow, I wish you a speedy recovery!

The GYN who did my hysto was cute and the surgeon who took out my Gall Bladder was HOT. What is it with surgeons?? Good luck!

I'm so jealous! This is exactly what I need in my life!

Good luck with the surgery. I just said a little prayer. My little one has his on thursday. Ok now I'm getting a little queasy!

Good luck! I'll be keeping you in my thoughts.

FWIW, I do prefer them middle aged and mildly wrinkly. *lol*

Hoping all went well for you -- prayers have gone up for you! May you not have said anything humiliating to Dr. Hotness (who is thankfully older than you :-)

I'm sorry to hear about the surgery. I hope it went smoothly, and that your recovery has been easy.

I hope all is well--I'm thinking of you! I don't know if I could handle a cute doctor...too much pressure to look presentable when you feel like crap!
