[Sacha Levy has just finished a very public phone call to his mother while on duty on the ward. He is now staring at a patient's feet sticking out of her bedsheets.]
It's a foot! I think you'll find her hernia and bowel operation a little further up.
You've been to medical school, haven't you? You kept that quiet.
Why don't you carry on trying to work out one end of your patient from the other and I'll deal with the rest of the ward.
Oh, thanks. [He looks at the patient's foot.] I'd say that was swollen.
I'd say it needs a good wash.
Would you say that was swollen?
Maybe. Any blood in the sputum?
No.
It's customary here for the doctors to do the diagnosing. Although I'm sure you've already asked for your mother's opinion.
