Hello everyone! Yes, he was joking. I just didn't find that shit funny. And he actually is a good doctor. But to make up for it, he gave me extra time off from work. I don't think he would do that to/for everybody, but I work at that hospital.

Everyone's reaming out the surgeon, but you have to understand that when you deal with sick, injured, and dying people as your day job, you tend to develop a rather dark and detached sense of humor as a coping mechanism. The surgeon probably didn't realize how hurtful the joke was to a layman. Still a FYL, but I don't see the surgeon as the unequivocal bad guy here.
