Day Eight: 5/31/10

Today when I went into the Consulting Room with the doctors, one of them asked me if I wanted to be in charge of “consulting” which is clearly the doctor’s job, and I made it perfectly clear that I was not in medical school and had absolutely no training in this, but he didn’t seem to think it was a problem so I played doctor today and it was AMAZING  He of course stood behind me and told me what to write and stuff, but it was cool actually doing what a doctor does because I don’t get to role play in the states. I also wrote some labs and prescriptions, I felt very important, plus when I walked out of the room, patients kept calling me “doctor.” It was a fun day!!!
