I just listened to a dictation where the doctor accidentally started reading a grocery list instead of the patient notes… At one point, he was really passionate about the merits of organic avocados! It made my day, but it also had me rethinking how I’d transcribe ‘citrus fruits’ in stark contrast to ‘surgery’ — gotta keep it light, right? You’ve got this.
I’ve had dictation gems too — once got a full review of taco night! 
How do you think we’d handle food dictations in a serious report?
Isn’t it wild how grocery lists can sneak in? I’d love to see how those ‘organic avocados’ would look in a surgical report! What’s next, a recipe for guacamole? @quickgrove63.
This reminds me of the time I had to transcribe a doctor’s notes where he started describing his favorite pizza toppings in detail! I love how these little moments sneak into our day-to-day. Maybe one day we’ll see a whole section on ‘dinner recommendations’ in a patient report — imagine the fun we could have with that.
