Doctor Who ?

So it took some effort, but we finally had got down the hierarchy of the staff at the hospital. You had your nurses, nurse practitioners, and newbie nurses. Then when it came to Oncology doctors you were assigned one main doc, who we met on the night of Matties diagnoses, then you were assigned a fellow, which Mattie always called Dr. Aimee (a fellow is a physician that undertakes a specialty training program or residency in a specific field or in our case child oncology).

Since our hospital is a learning hospital, whenever we were inpatient you would get a flood of intern and resident, poking and proding and they usually wear dark blue scrubs. Next you would find if your normal head doctor was not available for a visit you would get a visit from one of ten main doctors in the oncology group. So if your completely confused about who's who and why are they in your room, look on their hospital badge for their name, and ask politely,"what the heck you doing here?"
