Definitions
1
Hospital nickname for the proctologist — the doctor whose job involves the rear end all day. Pure pun, plays the naval rank against the working area. Used in the corridor, never to the patient, and the proctologists themselves usually own it.
“Refer him to the Rear Admiral — that's not a haemorrhoid I want to touch.”
