I looked at the patients name while walking into the exam room, I started asking; “What’s wrong with…” and stopped because of how odd the name was. I asked the mother (the patient was only 3) “How do you pronounce your child’s name?” She looked at me as if I was stupid and said “Sh-theed.” Ouch! The patient’s name was spelled: SHITHEAD, pronounced: “Sh-theed”. What a dumb mom. Poor kid, I hope he isn’t getting beaten up in school every day! I saw him often over several years. No lie!
