Powdered vs Powered?…LOL

Alright, alright stop laughing she says…..

A patient came in and said, I’m not sure what a powdered case is? I must have looked a little puzzled as she went on to say that it mentions a “powdered case” in the manual. We looked in her manual and she said see, it says powdered. As I looked closer it actually said powered case, meaning her rechargeable case.

We had to laugh! I love laughing with patients over a good story!

    It’s seems like it’s getting harder to find personable doctors you can laugh with. How great that our patients can find that with us!

      I can agree Liz. Many are so busy that the personal encounter becomes much more logical and too the point.
      I’m glad we have time to connect with patients.
