That’s Wild.

In medical school we had to place nasogastric tubes in each other.  That’s the tube that goes from your nose to your stomach.  It wasn’t that bad.
A year or two before I got into medical school, students were still doing rectal exams on each other.   That’s the era when we really could confirm that some doctors are just big assholes.  Since then, we have been unable to confirm directly.  Instead, now we have  alternative means to make that determination.  Such as when they open their mouth and speak.

    Well, I guess if we all had to experience this we would never let the propofol run low!
