Medicine is a profession filled with books – textbooks, logbooks, patient files, prescription books, journals, pocketbooks, e-books, library books, and of course, an extraordinary number of notebooks.
During the training to become a doctor, these notebooks are filled with a remarkable number of words – words to be memorized, read for clinic tutorials, jotted during lectures, presented on rounds, remembered for exams, or heard in hospital passages. Sometimes, words about life.
This compilation of anecdotes, extracted from some of those notebooks, are words uttered mostly on ward rounds.
