Stop Yer Bitchin’: The Rectal Exam was a Freebie!
A construction worker who was hit in the forehead has filed a lawsuit against a NY hospital claiming that they forced a rectal examination on him.
Brian Persaud, 38, says in court papers that after he denied a request by NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital emergency room employees to examine his rectum, he was “assaulted, battered and falsely imprisoned.”
… Emergency room staffers insisted on examining his rectum and held him down while he begged, “Please don’t do that.” He said Persaud hit a doctor while flailing around and staffers gave him an injection, which knocked him out, and performed the rectal exam.
Persaud woke up handcuffed to a bed and with an oxygen tube down his throat, the lawyer said, and spent three days in a detention center.
What the hell are you filing a lawsuit for? You just got a rectal exam without having to get a referral. Do you have any idea how difficult it is to get your bum looked out without wading through weeks of bureaucratic red tape? You’re a lucky son of a bitch, Persaud. Don’t look a gift horse in the ass.

Why would they put an oxygen tube down his throat?

Stephie: I think it was a major plot thread on Hosue.

I think Peter went in for a prostate exam, and ended up charging his doctor with rape.
