A Frustrated Doctor

A successful doctor was at a party, and as usual, people were coming up to him and asking him "hey doc what could cause this" and "hey doc what's this". Being a very kind man, he usually did what he could to help, but this often times led to him not being able to enjoy himself and was a constant reminder of work. So, the next woman that came up to and ask for some advice. His response was totally professional and she went about her business and no one bothered him for free advice for the rest of the night. What did he say? clarifications/hints: 1)he IS a medical doctor 2)The advice he gives is completely professional and calm 3)the gender of the person he's talking to is irrelevant 4)the answer is something you might hear in a medical office

Maybe this doctor is Alien's friend John? So he asks: "Could you please lend me $ 1000"?

Actually, I'm a proctologist. I spend my working hours with arseholes, not my evenings.

I like it Noke Lieu! This doctor at the party wouldn't be you, would it Chris Redfield? Perhaps you're looking for a clever, yet polite, reply to get rid of cheeky free-loaders at parties? Perhaps he said, "You know some of the best diagnostic cases I've been using in my new book came from parties just like this one. Before we begin, you wouldn't mind if I used your name directly would you?" Or did he say, "I am a profesional and wish to do the best for my patients. In order for me to be sure that you answer any of my questions as well as you can, and to perform a proper diagnosis, you need to be completely sober. I suggest that you stop drinking now and after allowing the effects of the alcohol in your bloodstream to wear-off completely come back and see me."?
