Goodness!!
When I had retinal hemorrhages about 15 years ago, I ended up seeing a retina specialist. He had a very thick Eastern European accent. When he examined me, the office would be dark except for the instrument light he was shining into my eyeballs, and a hooded desk lamp for the transcriptionist. He spent the whole exam describing what he was seeing in my retinas, in a combination of thickly accented English and thickly accented Latin and medical jargon. I always wondered how much of it she missed.
