A Physical Examination
Doctor: When did you last come in for a physical exam?
Patient: I had my last physical two years ago.
Doctor: Have you had any other exams recently? Blood work, an EKG or an ultra-sound?
Patient: Well, I had a few X-rays at the dentist's.
Doctor: How have you been feeling in general?
Patient: Pretty well. No complaints, really.
Doctor: Could you roll up your left sleeve? I'd like to take your blood pressure.
Patient: Certainly.
Doctor: 120 over 80. That's fine. You don't seem to be overweight, that's good. Do you exercise
regularly?
Patient: No, not really. If I run up a flight of stairs, it takes me a while to get my breath back. I need to get
out more.
Doctor: That would be a good idea. How about your diet?
Patient: I think I eat a pretty balanced diet. You know, I'll have a hamburger from time to time, but
generally I have well-balanced meals.
Doctor: That's good. Now, I'm going to listen to your heart.
Patient: Ooh, that's cold!
Doctor: Don't worry it's just my stethoscope. Now, breathe in and hold your breath. Please pull up your
shirt, and breathe deeply... Everything sounds good. Let's take a look at your throat. Please open wide
and say 'ah'.
Patient: 'ah'
Doctor: OK. Everything looks shipshape. I'm going to order some blood work and that's about it. Take this
slip to the front desk and they'll arrange an appointment for the tests.
Patient: Thank you doctor. Have a nice day.
