Bedside
The phlebotomist administering the blood test for my medical screening today had about as much bedside manner as Frankenstein-- or an Indian nurse. Oye! He wrapped this tubing around my arm like I was a heroin addict. Surely, I thought, my arm will fall off during a simple blood test. I did enjoy the EKG and cardiogram. They were like stepping back into the 1950s. The clinic was, I must say, quite efficient. American hospital agencies could take a lesson.

Stepping back into the 1950s? What a provocative idea. Can you expand on what you mean by that? Was it the machinery? the building? the brain washing?
