Today, I went to see my gynecologist. She was writing my symptoms up in my chart on her computer. After a little while, I noticed that she had a confused look on her face and was reading something instead. When I took a peek at the computer screen, I saw that she was Googling my symptoms. FML

I've been to 2 different doctor's that searched my problem on wikipedia and then printed the page out for me.

We can see you were first, Fidelis, you have a little #1 to the left of the date and time. And to the OP, I hear that that's not too uncommon, which is really sad, but true.

I don't even go to the doctor anymore, you could find anything on the internet.

My doc does this, except I live in a country with free healthcare. Hahahaha.

if it's symptoms are rare doctors are encouraged to google it to check for really rare diseases

Even doctors can't know EVERYTHING. I would much rather have a doctor admit they may not know the answer than pretend like they do and get it wrong at my expense and health.

The fact that this is a gynecologist makes the FML even funnier, in my opinion.

I'd have no issue with a doctor doing research if they don't know what's up. It's the ones who lie and swear they know the problem to cover their ignorance that scare me.

wow um...dont pay her. You can google by yourself without paying someone out the ass to do it for you. **** that

Think it's time to see a new gynecologist?
