Reality Check by Dave Whamond for September 06, 2023

Great joke, but I haven’t had a written prescription from a doctor in many years. They just send it in online the the pharmacy now.

After the first lawsuit or two about misread prescriptions, doctors’ handwriting isn’t the punchline it once was. Like airline food.

Old joke.

What do they want, better healthcare?

They are just advertising to fill the extra rooms in their mansions. They’re doctors without boarders.

Walking the picket line…

… twice a day, with food.

Is there an abbreviation for amoxicillin?

What? This isn’t an RX! Write more clearly…

That’s hilarious!

And swallowed or inserted q.d., b.i.d, t.i.d., q.i.d., or what?

I thought the one on the right was a prescription for Vicodin. :)

Well done!

What language is Ralph speaking?

" Hey Hey, Ho Ho, WebMD has got to go!!"

I can’t tell what they’re striking for, or against, but I support them all the way!

We used to have to take sheets from Urgent Care and enter them into the computer (to charge out visits) and the handwriting was atrocious on those sheets. We just memorized what squiggle represented “laryngitis”, etc.

It looks like the podiatrists all “walked”. The cardiologists didn’t have the heart to cross the picket line. The trauma doctors knew how to treat the scabs who crossed the picket line.
