Trivia

  • An Template:W is an Ear, Nose, and Throat, or ENT, surgeon, also known as a head and neck surgeon.
  • Before the advent of penlights, these mirrors were used to create hands-free lighting. In use, the mirror is strapped to the physician's head with his eye looking through the hole in the center. The Medic's, however, follows the erroneous pop culture version, worn in the center of the forehead and lacking the eye hole.
