The Prognosis (A short sketch)

When a patient comes to see a doctor the assumption is always that it is the patient who is sick and in need of some help.  In ‘The Prognosis’ such an assumption is turned upside down and we are treated to a very interesting proposition of a patient diagnosing illness in the health worker.  We watch as the Doctor’s confidence in his own personal health and knowledge decreases the more he interacts with his patient.

This is a clever short sketch that wonderfully employs the tools of confusion and turning the tables to evoke comedy from a simple everyday situation that we are all familiar with.
