地道美语听力练习:看专家门诊

I went to see my doctor because I had a nagging pain in my leg.

After he examined me and ran some routine tests, he suggested that I go see a specialist.

I made an appointment with Dr.Sloap.

Dr.Sloap:Good morning.How are you today?

Simon:I'm fine, Dr.Slope.

My GP, Dr.Harding, referred me to you.

He thought that you might be able to diagnose the problem with my leg.

Dr.Sloap:Well, let's take a look…Hmm…I want to order some tests but I think you may need surgery.

It's a simple procedure and it will relieve your pain.

Simon:So, it's not a high risk operation?

Dr.Sloap:No, not at all.It's quite routine.

Simon:Are there any other treatment options?

Dr.Sloap:Not that I'd recommend.

This is the best course of treatment in my opinion.

I was really surprised by what Dr.Slope said.I really didn't want to have surgery.

I think I'd better get a second opinion before going under the knife.
