Conversations of an ENT doctor

Do you do laser tonsillectomy?!!… That’s the latest trend in US do you know!!…..??…

Yes but it will be a little costlier than the regular tonsillectomy…

Will get back to you doctor!!….
Do you do suction clearance of ear??….

Yes we do…..

Do you charge anything for that??

Only consultation and one free visit with that…..

After three visits….. Unsuccessful because they forgot to put the drops or they were busy so they came after two weeks or months!!….

Hey you said one visit is free!!??!!!…
Why do I have to give five hundred rupees to talk to the doctor for five minutes??…

He had just come from the Justin Bieber concert paying 5000k and ending up with a hearing loss and headache…..
