Embarrassing Medical Moments

As a new, young MD doing his residency in OB., I was quite embarrassed when performing female pelvic exams. To cover my embarrassment I had unconsciously formed a habit of whistling softly.

The middle-aged lady upon whom I was performing this exam suddenly burst out laughing and further embarrassing me.

I looked up from my work and sheepishly said, 'I'm sorry. Was I tickling you?'

She replied with tears running down her cheeks from laughing so hard, ' No doctor but the song you were whistling was 'I wish I was an Oscar Meyer Wiener.'

- Doctor wouldn't submit his name.
