Littman and Fittman

This is a Littman. If you don't know what it is, you do not have anything to do with the medical profession.

For this is the Rolls Royce of Stethoscopes. The best in any Price Range. Take it from me, it is enough to make you feel like a better doctor the minute you hold it. The winding L on the face of the Steth is enough to even evoke gasps in the chests of fledgling medical students. It is expensive, classy, and one of those things that last a lifetime. One of the signs of making it "big" as a doc is owning a Littman.

Er.. In case you are wondering, Littman, if he was a man, did not invent the Stetho. It was a Frenchman, Rene Laennec.




And this, ladies and gentlemen is the Fittman. Heh heh.. on close scrutiny, you fill find that the "F" on the face closely resembles the well known "L" of the Littman. The trained eye will notice that it is indeed the same L; which is inverted.

The Fittman is a far cry from the big L. It cannot come close to duplicating the quality of a Littman. It is like comparing your local auto-rickshaw stereo speaker to a Harmon-Kardon. In all probability you will mistake a pan-systolic murmur for breath sounds.

But what is it, other than a cheap stetho with a big presumptous "F" on it? Ah, it is the ultimate show of attitude of the medical student against his harassing superiors. When less civilized folks show their middle finger as an act of insult, all our tactful little medico needs to do is flash the stetho as it dangles on his shoulders. This is thus, The Big F!
