It means gastroenterologist but then shouldn't it be GE?

 

[Guest]

Think I'll go with "greedy internist". Guess I misspelled gastroenterologist. Oops.cat

 

[Guest]

It does mean Gastro Intestinal-so brought on the xray series GI series and upper and lower GI- the doctors specialize in these - but they are GI specialists- not GO doctors.

Ha that is so funny. My GP told me GI meant gastroenterologist. I guess it is GI specialist shortened to just GI. It just goes to show ya how well we communicate in this world lol. No wonder I always thought GE was a more appropriate anagram. (I hope that is what it is called lol)

And here I thought that GE brings good things to light. (I watch too much TV)------------------JennT

At times it also denotes Grossly Incompetent
