I checked for drug interactions with a flip of a finger, a middle-aged techno-babe plying my apps.
As I put down my iPhone, the room exploded with an arcade-style riff.
“Nice ringtone!” I said to my patient.
“Uh...I think that was your phone.”
Oh dang, I opened my games while closing down drugs. Not so tech savvy after all.

I'm an internist of few words who spends privileged time every day with my patients. Often mundane, sometimes funny, frequently sad or frustrating, these are close encounters of the life-changing kind.

Fresh off her internship, she looked like a teenager. The stethoscope around her was the clue.
She was serious, yet with a quirky sense of humor, but I put my well being in her hands anyway. The best decision of my life.
Twenty tears later when I moved away, I wrote, thanking her for the extras years under her care. She said she’d never received a letter like that before.
Thank you Anon: What a lovely comment that touches my heart! Hope all is well with you.
LOL! You made me laugh.
