He is definetly putting a K or Q sound on the beginning and I have put cool and strong & have not got any feed back yet.


I love this doc otherwise, the dream dictator..always very clear (except for that) dictates in same order, to the point where I have a standard for his whole reports, very considerate, spells the hard ones, but he uses some very old fashion terminology at times,

Thanks for the replies, but I do know what a Phalen test is.  This would not apply to this because this was the actual diagnosis.  I actually did figure out the answer, it is a distal phalanx felon.

Subject: thank you for your replies - suspect

this is another case of a doctor thinking he knows it all and spelling it incorrectly - he never did state the term, he just spelled it, which makes me suspect he does not know HOW to pronounce it! I painfully put what he dictated and will let him worry about it! Thanks again!
