Oh the "-ology" words

Some of my favorite -ology words:
Leukemiology, pee-peeology, heartology, Onacology, eyeology, bladderology, boneology, legology, headology, gaproecclesology (this was Gastroenterology).

And a fun call. . .
Caller: I need an appointment for a mammogram
Me: We don't have a mammogram machine here
Caller: Well my son has an infection or some sort of rash on his cheek and it's moving down towards his ear, so I need to get him a mammogram.
Me: A mammogram is when a breast is squished in a machine and then a x-ray picture is taken to check for growths and abmornal tissue. That doesn't sound like what you need. It sounds more like you need a Dermatologist.
Caller: (giggles) Oh. Okay.
