I love my doctor.

Michaela (we are on a first name basis) is a totally top bird and great doctor to boot. She works in a surgery that looks like a Coco Republic showroom. Let’s be honest, if you are in getting a pap smear it’s nice to be surrounded with beautiful interiors to take your mind off the job at hand.

I am such a regular (between myself and my son) I am surely due a set of steak knives or an upgrade to platinum status on my frequent doctor card. But this latest visit wasn’t anything to do with my troublesome asthma and nothing to do with my front bits. After we had a quick kiss on the cheek (told you were close) I got straight into it.
