"Doctor's Emergency" joke

Shortly after arriving home from work one evening, a well respected surgeon was relaxing on his sofa. As he was tuning in to the evening news, the phone rang. He calmly answered it and heard the familiar voice of a friend and colleague on the other end of the line.
"We need a fourth for poker," said the friend.
"I'll be right there," the doctor whispered.
As he was putting on his coat, his wife asked, "Is it serious, dear?"
"Oh yes, very serious," the doctor replied gravely. "In fact, three doctors are there already!"
