This is what I wish my neurologist was like
Instead:
New Neurologist: The First Visit Props: Projected Sign: No Eating Nor Drinking While in This Office (We’ve had too many spills!!!) Table Eyeglasses Hospital Gown File and penNeurologist (writing): “Do you have any problems with your eyes?”
Me(seated – table): “Not yet.”
Neurologist (writing): “Do you have any problems with bladder, bowel control?”
Me: “Not yet.”
Neurologist (Removes glasses, looks up appearing exasperated already): “You really shouldn’t be so fatalistic. Any problems swallowing?”
Me (Pausing): “No.”
