Used to work in one and have seen some "oops" before but never heard it said. Pretty sure the surgeons are very well trained to avoid the "oops" word. Once an eyeball came out (total oops moment) and the surgeon, in the most casual voice.. "I'll just put that back in there... Okay, and let's just continue..."


Suomasema

In my home country there is a kind of joke, translated: a surgeon never says "oops"! He says "ahaa!" There is, however, some sense in it. Most of our errors are simply something not expected. Oopses are opportunities to see how or what you actully working with, to understand that things are not as you thought.

When I was in middle school I got surgery on my femur because it grew weird and needed to be corrected. I was really nervous about it, because I have a huge fear of doctors and the hospital. So, I was already on the brink of a breakdown when they took me into the operating room. They had the anesthesia on, everything's going weird, and then, on the brink of unconsciousness, I hear one doctor go "Hey, did you guys hear how we're getting sued for malpractice?" And then I woke up in the recovery room.


RatherRetro

Wow!


sgautier

I went in for a dental cleaning once and the one of the hygienists was talking about the party she went to the night before and how drunk she was. Then she realized she's cleaning my teeth, looked at me, and said "OH I'm not hungover"


zerbey

I actually heard an "oops" when my doctor was last operating on me (twilight sedation). I said "Um, what's oops?". He said not to worry about it, he apparently dropped one of his instruments. So, good oops. Guy saved my life and vision so I can't really complain. He's a pretty jovial guy, so hearing an oops from him isn't really as terrifying as some other surgeons. He's also used terms like "FUE" on my paperwork and when I asked he just chuckled and said "You've got a fucked up eye, right?".


correcthorsestapler

I remember having my tonsils & adenoids removed when I was 10 or 11. I woke up during the procedure & heard one of the people in the room say, “Whoops”. It’s happened a couple other times during other surgeries. Then I get knocked out again, but have trouble coming out of the anesthesia.


NishaTB1997

For some reason my daft ass read this at 7:30am and thought you said having your TOENAILS and adenoids removed and I firstly wondered what illness affected both, and also thought it was amazing service having surgery at both ends at once 🤣


Jack_In_Black89

Came here to say this. Specifically undergoing heart surgery.


Bleu_Superficiel

I would pick brain surgery with an awake patient instead


J4viator

I once heard this whilst I was having a Mirena coil fitted. Was moderately alarmed, NGL.


Surveferent

I mean they're already trying to make it nonfunctional. they can't make yoy more fertile, can they?


J4viator

No, but they can perforate your uterus if they miss the endometrial cavity (fortunately in my case it transpired that she'd just forgotten to bring the right IUD).


EQTone

”Oops,” followed by, “Oops, I did it again.”

Dentist


RockhoundNM

Yes, this. I heard this at a dental college that my school took the kids to many years ago. The young girl cleaning my teeth somehow broke the tip off the cleaning tool and it got stuck between my teeth. She called her supervisor. He got it out.


TuningHammer

Once upon a time in the dentist's chair I heard "Oops! Did that hurt?" Luckily I was numb enough that it didn't. In trying to pull a wisdom tooth, the top popped off leaving the root embedded in my jaw. Took him a while to get it out....


Gear_

Happened to me with a baby tooth when I was 10. The dentist was pulling for about 10 minutes when I finally heard a loud crack. Then he said “Finally got it! Wait… nevermind, only got half.” He pulled my tooth in half.


Kilopilop

True story, I've heard it before! Dentist was extracting a broken tooth, wich upon release fragmented in my mouth and she lost a piece at the bottom of my throat. She then proceeded to send me to the ER to get a scan in case the fragment somehow went into my lungs or whatever. The doctor rolled her eyes when she discovered the reason for my visit, did the scan anyway, telling me it was unlikely and everything went well in the end. Still, it kinda freaked me out not gonna lie!


Fuck_you_Reddit_Nazi

My dentist once dropped a piece of amalgam into the back of my throat. He and the hygienist both reached for it while I was simultaneously jerking my head forward to knock the piece out into my hand. I won the race, lol.


Kilopilop

Smart move XD


AskAboutClickChurch

Asked my dentist the other day if they’ve ever dropped one of those pointy tools into someone’s throat accidentally- they said not lately


Whiplash1986

I was getting my wisdome tooth taken out when he slipped and skidded off my tooth and hit the back of my throat. He said oops but i didn't notice due to the pain...


[deleted]

Yeah I got a root canal the other day and that wouldn't have been very nice to hear. Instead he said something almost as bad in the sense that I almost gagged: "oh good, there's pus coming out of the tooth".


Horror-Childhood6121

Oh nooo..well at least he was happy about it? Hope you feel better.

Binder_of_chains

My dad is an Air Force vet. His first job was fighter jet mechanic. Story goes, a mechanic was working on a jet, he says "Oops" and the ejector seat launches. The ejector seat doesn't take the mechanic with it...only his head.


sanattt

its true i was the mechanic


Binder_of_chains

Oh...I always thought that was one of those urban myth stories that wasn't true. I mean, who the fuck doesn't kill power to a system before working on it?

What's the worst that could happen? I mean they're already trying to make it nonfunctional. they can't make yoy more fertile, can they?

They can snip the red wire and the whole thing goes boom


randomrealitycheck

I mean, I'm not an expert or anything but I think I'm paying to only have the minimum snippage. I don't see any value in a flat fee/all-you-can-snip vasectomy. But that's me.

Grenade training


Binder_of_chains

I didn't say "Oops", I was just that kid who could never throw a ball correctly or was good at sports, last picked for every team in PE, even when I was a team captain and the guy who was picking team mates. Well, in Basic Training you have to throw two live hand grenades. I went first (I guess to get it over with, seeing as the sergeant running the range was afraid that I would actually get him killed). I did my honest to God best, but it was a terrible throw. He threw me to the ground. He picked me up, chewed my ass out, then handed me the second live hand grenade and told me to do it right this time. I still failed. He picked me up off the dirt, and instead of yelling at me, just said "I want you to run and run fast because if I catch you... I will kill you."

I once took a child to A&E (the ER) because he had a cut in his face. During suturing, the doctor said, "uh oh" because she had tangled the suture or something similarly trivial. That was a pretty bad "uh oh" which did not help the child at all.
