Everyone freezes. I snap wide awake. Ooh, a cardiac arrest! Surely he'll take some of us poor medical students along, right? Finally, I get to see if it's actually like E.R. or Grey's Anatomy. I grab my stethoscope, close my folder and almost kick some old lady's wheelchair over in my rush to get to the door--
--and Komrade Konsultant turns his pager off, tosses it back into his pocket and turns back to the patient's folder, saying:
"Cardiac arrest? Screw that, I haven't even had my Starbucks yet."
Gives you real faith in the hospital system doesn't it?

Ack!!
A bit worrying!
who wants a consultant at a cardiac arrest anyway...
Yeah...
Sucks a bit, doesn't it?
The question is- did any of your fellow medical students agree with him?
u noe...dat picture of the surprised dog...actually looks abit like u...roflol
Got to agree with Dr. Shroom, Consultants are more of a liability on the scene of an arrest... personal experience!! Often, they ask to be filled out on the details of the patient while u are pumping away at his chest, so they dont blunder while letting the next of kin know that the pt has crashed and may not make it!!!
Hummmmm, well, that's, ah...interesting. Let's get to the good stuff...like how great it is to have another post from you, dear and i l o v e the pic!
that is truly scary. now i know not to have a heart attack in london. It'll be even more useful if you let us know which HOSPITAL you're at so i don't have strike out the whole of london from my travels!
LOL!
Oh..I'd rather have a heart attack at Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza then...the docs there would put this guy to shame.
ahhh that's how reality works. it bites. like a meany lil mongrel.
hehe. starbucks eh? consultants here would probably say 'teh tarik' instead. lol
:) doctors...are just like any other human beings....normal:)
really. LOL
You have to respect a man who knows his priorities. Even if he's an asshat.
