Guest guest Posted June 28, 2002 Report Share Posted June 28, 2002 Aliceanne, If there are bilateral Crest pads, wouldn't there be two of them? So wouldn't the sentence say, " Removable Crest pads were created for patient B/L?

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2002 Report Share Posted June 29, 2002 I thought #3 was perfectly understandable as I have worked for podiatrists.....they are not the " same " as other docs! What the doc was saying was that: Bilateral, removable Crest pads were made for the patient. It doesn't matter " how " she said it. How you had it was fine. It doesn't have to be fancy, it was understood. That's all that's necessary. Re: phrasing > Aliceanne, > > If there are bilateral Crest pads, wouldn't there be two of them?

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2002 Report Share Posted June 29, 2002 You are right in that they are not the same but they must make sense. That is what we are being paid for, I think. So, if I could change it I do. She does not speak in sentences at all and I gather from your response you have had the same experience. She would not have bothered if I did not change it but since she was hemming and hawing, which she never does, I felt I should come to her rescue. Thanks for your input though. It is nice to know this client, podiatrist, is not alone.
