First of all, don't stress it.

Sure, that greeting is just fine, along with many other variations there of. Everyone seems to make a big deal of draping, but it really isn't. There is a folded sheet on a chair seperate from the exam table. If you going to do an abdominal exam or any other exam where you need a drape, just simply have them sit/lay on the table, and place it in the appropriate area. Just use common sense. That is the best advice for any part of CS.
