Topic in English “At the Doctor’s”. Topic in English At the Doctors (At the doctor)

Is there anything more important than health? I don"t think so. "Health is the greatest wealth," wise people say. You can"t be good at your studies or work well when you are ill.

If you have a headache, heartache, toothache, backache, earache or bad pain in the stomach, if you complain of a sore throat or a bad cough, if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold in your head, or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure, I think you should consult a doctor. The doctor will examine your throat, feel your pulse, test your blood pressure, take your temperature, sound your heart and lungs, test your eyes, check your teeth or have your chest X-rayed.

After that he will prescribe some treatment, pills, tablets or some other medicine which we can buy at the chemist's. He will recommend you to stay in bed for some time, because there might be serious complications. The only thing you have to do is to follow his recommendations.

Speaking about doctors" recommendations, I can"t help telling you one funny story.

An old gentleman came to see the doctor. The man was very ill. He complained of weakness, insomnia, memory loss and serious problems with his heart, lungs and liver. The doctor examined the patient and said that no medicine could cure his disease.

Do you want to know what the doctor's advice was?

He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest. He also advised him to eat a lot of meat, drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks. In other words, the doctor recommended him to follow the rule: "Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is."

The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn't smoke more than one cigarette a day.

A month later the gentleman came into the doctor's office. He looked cheerful and happy. He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man.

"But you know, doctor," he said, "it"s not easy to begin smoking at my age."

Next, please. Come in… Take a seat.

Hello, doctor. Last time I came to see you a year ago. You gave me a complete medical check-up then.

OK. And what is the matter with you at the moment? Any complaints?

I don't feel very well. I’ve had an awful headache for 2 days already. Besides I've got a sore throat.

Have you got a high temperature?

I took my temperature this morning. It was 37.9.

That's not so much, I must say.

So much the better, doctor. If it were over 38 degrees I’d be in bed now.

Are you coughing much?

A little bit. I don’t have any fits of coughing but I feel pain when I talk and swallow.

I see. I have to examine your throat and sound your lungs now… Please, strip to the waist. Now take a deep breath. OK. You can breathe out. And now I want you to cough. Good... Well, don’t worry, it’s just a throat infection. There's nothing wrong with your lungs. I’ll prescribe some pills which you should take twice a day, in the morning and in the evening, after your meals. You should also take cough syrup, 3 teaspoonfuls a day will be enough. And it goes without saying that you must not drink any cold liquids.

All right. Is that all doctor?

Oh, yes, I shall not prescribe any antibiotics for you, as you haven’t got bronchitis fortunately. If you follow my directions, you’ll avoid any complications and feel much better in a couple of days. However if the symptoms do not disappear by Thursday you should come and consult me ​​again.

I don't feel well. I've had a terrible headache for two days now. Besides, my throat hurts.

Do you have a high temperature?

This morning I took my temperature. It was 37.9.

Not that high, I must say.

So much the better, Doctor. If it had been more than 38 degrees, I would be lying in bed right now.

Do you cough a lot?

A little. I don't have coughing attacks, but it hurts to talk and swallow.

It's clear. I need to examine your throat and listen to your lungs... Please undress to the waist. Now take a deep breath. Fine. You can breathe out. Now I want you to cough. Okay...
