My Nemesis Dr Tran

There is locums hospitalist named Dr Tran whose visits to Bethel often precede mine by one week or less.  This causes a great deal of confusion, as many village health aides and hospital staff that I speak with on the phone will address me as "Dr Tran" even after repeated corrections.  Although I have only met Dr Tran once (for about 5 minutes in March 2011), one of the OB nurses often asks me, "How is your little friend?" [referring slyly to Dr Tran].  It's mildly amusing, but I would be lying if I deny that some tiny evil part of me is occasionally tempted to wreak havoc and embark on a minor crime spree under the guise of being Dr Tran.  But only while I'm in Bethel, of course.

For a minute I thought you were referring to a certain Lan Tran...
