A woman visited a medical clinic where she was seen by a young, new doctor. After about three minutes in the examination room, the doctor told her she was pregnant.
She started screaming as she ran down the corridor.
An older doctor stopped her and asked what the problem was and she told him what had happened. After listening, he told her to sit down and relax in another examination room.
The older doctor marched down the hallway and confronted the young doctor and said, "What is the matter with you? Mrs Wallen is 62 years old, has four grown children and seven grandchildren and you tell her she is PREGNANT?"
The young doctor continued to write on the patient's chart, and without looking up asked, "Does she still have hiccups?"
