Of course this was back in the fifties, and I was a small child.....
My obstetrician also made house calls. I can still remember hiding at age 2, underneath a big barrel back chair in the living room once when he came , afraid that Dr. Hoffman was going to give me a shot (he did!) and he pulled me out by the legs.
I remember hiding behind the sofa once as a child - for exactly the same reason! (BTW, family docs still do make house calls here, as a matter of routine.)
