A woman went to her doctor’s surgery where she was seen by a newly qualified medic.
Within seconds she could be heard screaming, as she ran out of the examination room in tears and fled the building.
A senior doctor witnessed what happened and, naturally, asked the young medic for an explanation as to exactly what happened.
“Well, sir,” said the young medic, “I just told her she was pregnant.”
“Pregnant!” the senior doctor exclaimed. “How can she be pregnant, she’s 75 years old. What possible reason could you have for telling her that she’s pregnant?”
“Well,” the young medic responded, “it certainly cured the problem with her hiccups.”
