SCENE- A patient is lying in bed groaning as a doctor walks in.
Patient: (groaning): Oh, Doctor! Oh Doctor!
Doctor: You don’t look good. I’ll find what it is that’s troubling you. I’ll examine you for $10.
Patient: Go ahead. If you find it I’ll give you half.
Doctor: Stick your tongue out.
Patient: What for? I’m not mad at you.
Doctor: Now, say Ah!
Patient: Ah.
Doctor: Say Fah!
Patient: Fah.
Doctor: Say Sol!
Patient: Sol.
Doctor: Say La!
Patient: Here I’m dying and he’s giving me singing lessons.
Doctor: Why do you keep looking down all the time?
Patient: The doctor I saw last week told me to watch my stomach.
Doctor: Did the nurse take your temperature?
Patient: I don’t know what she took. So far, I’ve only missed my wallet.
Doctor: Well, let me take your pulse. Ah! Your pulse is steady as a clock.
Patient: No wonder! You’ve got your hand on my wrist watch.
Doctor: Were you ever troubled by diphtheria?
Patient: Only when I tried to spell it. How long have you been practicing anyway, Doc?
Doctor: Oh, about thirty years.
Patient: Practising thirty years! Say, Doc , when are you going to learn?
Doctor: I’ll have you know that I’m a highly educated man. I graduated with a Bachelors of Arts, and three more degrees.
Patient: Oh, that’s nothing. I graduated from college with a hundred and four degrees.
Doctor: How’d you do that?
Patient: I had fever.
Doctor: Smart alec, eh!(moves out of the room frustrated.)
