I came in with a fresh laceration about 1.5” long on my forehead. Doctor looked at me, didn’t even touch it, and said it couldn’t be closed. He then had the nurse clean it and apply a dressing. Suggested some scar treatment creams. He asked me multiple times if I wanted a tetanus shot, even tho I said I was current. I saw a different ER doctor later that day who had no problems putting in 8 stitches and closing it up nicely. The scar on my face will be minimal.
