"Grocery tumour"?

Figures.
As the doctor started the exam, he patted her husband’s stomach and called it a “grocery tumor”.
 'Obesity' is a slim person wearing a fat suit that is disease.

I think the case can rest on that one.

P.S.

Stepping out of the role of medical professional that way, to enter into this kind of over familiarity, when someone is in a vulnerable position-laying down- is not appropriate: boundaries.

I can't think of an equivalent, I suppose it's like this doctor suddenly patting the concave tummy of a slim person saying something like "famine".

Uncalled for.
