Teen poses as doctor for a month
A 17-year-old Florida boy pretended to be a doctor at a local hospital and managed to get away with the act for an entire month!
The teen wore a white coat with the hospital's logo printed on the front pocket while roaming the halls of the facility. The word, “anesthesiology," also appeared on the coat.
Authorities say when he was caught, he had a stethoscope around his neck, a mask on and was busy listening to a real doctor who was conducting an exam with a patient.
The doctor says initially, he didn't think anything was wrong when the boy introduced himself as Dr. Robinson. He also didn't believe the teen was an impostor at first because the interns at the hospital have been getter younger and younger by the year.
The teenager's mother told authorities that her son had been ill and had stopped taking his medication. The hospital's decided not to charge him.
