One of the things i can’t stand is when they ask what the problem is. I hate that especially because

1) if I knew what the problem was I probably wouldn’t need a doctor, I’d just tell you what I needed
2) whatever the problem is, that’s really between me and the doctor
3) when I tell them what I think the problem is, they always say “what makes you think you have that problem?” or “you have this problem or you THINK you have this problem?”

Fucking hell, I wish doctors would just stop telling their office people to ask that. Or if they insist on having some forewarning, at least tell your office folk not to answer it. Just say “okay” and be done.
