In this quick and lighthearted episode, Hao shares a real workplace moment that turned into a professional lesson. What started as a funny debate between two speech therapists—how to describe a “fat neck”—becomes a reflection on anatomy, language, and respect in clinical documentation.
Learn what adipose tissue really means, why saying “neck is huge” isn’t quite the same as “increased subcutaneous adipose tissue,” and how the words we choose shape both professionalism and patient dignity.
Clinical. Neutral. Respectful.
Because sometimes, even a “fat neck” can teach us something about how we speak as clinicians.
