Ok I am sure Jay Leno is known to all especially with his Top 10 whatever...so this gave me an idea to post the Top most memorable patients that I have come across thus far in my career:
16 year old female who was raped by her father became pregnant and is raising the child..
20+ year old female who complained have not having her menses for 6months and claimed she never was sexually active in her life....guess what...yep she was 6 months pregnant
26 year old healthy male who came to the office thinking he had a cold...chest xray revealed empyema
80 year old women never wanted a hernia repair ....it literally hung down to her knees
Elderly female who thought she had the virus came in with nausea vomiting back pain...ekg showed inferior MI...to the hospital with you!!!
Amish male came to office with nail from a nail gun through his leg
Schizophrenic young adult male came in for his depokote shot and closed the exam room door and cornered me and was irate...then he runs out of the office building onto a busy highway
Homeless man complaining of foot pain...unwrapped the soil dressing he had covering the painful area to find and foul smelling magot infested wound
so it is only 8 but I am sure I will have many more found memories to be added to this list
Wow, what a list! Especially the 80 year old woman - holy cow!
