This article was written by David Gunn a fourth-year medical student from Queen's University in Kingston Ontario. It was published in 1993 in the Canadian Medical Association Journal. This article makes light of the use of big words in medicine and how they can be very confusing to patients. The article is fun to read and easy to follow. It does not include references, links or contacts.
I like this article. One of my favorite statements is, "Big words are used to impress the uninitiated or to conceal ignorance. " This statement surely makes one think.
