30 Something Baby Doc

I was seeing a patient in the office yesterday for a routine annual exam. She was a very pleasant lady in her mid 30's. While I was interviewing her she said she may need narcotics to treat her persistent back pain. She felt her back pain was secondary to her "gigantic breast" as she described them. She felt she desperately needed a breast reduction. I told her I would first send her to physical therapy to determine the true nature of her back pain (usually these consults are needed before plastics will even consider a breast reduction).

I performed the pelvic exam then I told the patient I was going to perform a breast exam. She then suddenly threw off the top portion of her gown, proudly grabbed her breast and started stroking them saying " see doctor, they are soooo incredibly huge!!!!!!!" She was fondling her breast as if she were in a burlesque show. My medical assistant and I looked at each other in disbelief.


After we left the room , my medical assistant said to me, " I wonder why she wants a breast reduction? She seems pretty damn happy with those bad boys just the way they are."
