Once again, Emergency proves themselves to be the master of communication, even when thrown a curveball like actually getting an Opthalmologist on the phone.

Reminds me of an ER doc that was playing bejeweled the whole time I was giving report, so I made a snarky comment at the end to get his attention. He looked up and repeated everything back to me and gave me his order. I gave him and impressive nod and said “Will do.” He then put on his readers in a cool guy fashion and slowly turned back around in his chair to dictate. I had plenty of good times/interactions with that doc after that.

Seeing Emergency Medicine getting slowly annoyed even though they called the consult was such a breath of fresh air, I thought only Neurology was able to achieve that feat 🤣

I’m a retired family doc. One time about 10 years ago I had a patient who I thought was having a posterior vitreous detachment. She was the last patient of the day at about 5:45 pm on a Friday. I wanted to at least touch bases with the ophthalmologist on call both for the patient’s (and my) peace of mind. I called his office and the office was understandably closed so I left a message with his answering service for him to give me a call at my office where I was still seeing patients. Thirty minutes went by- no return call. I called again. Meanwhile the patient was waiting in the exam room and I asked my medical assistant to stay late as I never had a female in the office without another female employee present and in sight. another thirty minutes went by- no return call. I called a third time and told the answering service that I and my medical assistant were going to drive the patient in my own car to his home and we would be waiting in the driveway for him. I received a call back within 5 minutes. He was at his son’s Little League game. (I was never able to get to those.) Anyway, after a discussion and reassurance he agreed to see the patient at his office first thing Monday morning. Everything was duly noted in my chart and I told the patient to take it easy over the weekend and I gave her my cell number to call if her vision worsened.

Just once, I want someone to nod their head to me the way Jonathan does for the ophthalmologist. One day...

Wow. So Saturday morning on my 28th birthday my chicken pecked me in the eye. I went to the tiny local ER and I’m pretty sure I was the only patient there. Once they had me back in a room, I waited three hours before the ophthalmologist came and saw me. Yes, HE CAME AND SAW ME. At the time I was annoyed it took him so long, but now I realize I received the greatest honor of my life. Who knows what the on call doc had to do to get him in. I witnessed a miracle. I am humbled.

Sometimes it's hard to distinguish if these are skits or not because that acting is on another level.

An ophthalmologist being on call simply means being on a phone call.

Reminds me of my accountant. The man was sleeping during a seminar. Lecturer asked him to repeat the last segment. Perfectly recapped the last 10min and answered the follow up question. Closed his eyes immediately when the lecturer went on. Guy was not human sometimes

This channel continues to prove that my time seeing an ophthalmologist at insane o’ clock in the morning in the ER was such a miracle. It also explains why the doc was grumpy.

Once again, I'm immeasurably thankful to our hospital for keeping an ophthalmology resident perpetually locked in a tiny dark room in the ER as part of the "learning process".

This is the best one ever. I'm an ED doctor and this is so accurate!!! My exact reaction when a specialist answers the phone, who actually asks me details... and the long "made-up words" 🤣 And yes, going back to play instead of trying to do a test that I never even heard of 🤣🤣🤣
