Hi everyone.
I'm overdue for a annual check up with my doctor. I've got several issues that I need to talk to her about. I phoned in July to make an appointment. They told me to phone back in a month as there was nothing availble at the moment. I phoned back in a month. The schedual hadn't been made yet. I got busy. Maybe a little depressed. I didn't phone back until yesterday. This is the answer I got.
Me: I'd like to make an appointment to see Dr. X.
Receptionist: (as she looks on her computer) its always a long wait... let me see... we are completely booked until... April. (pause) Also, the schedual for April is not made yet, so phone back in a month.
I think I told myself everyday since I'd called back in August that I needed to phone the doctor. For whatever reason yesterday I made that call. And for what? People say health care is terrible 'cause they don't have a family doc. Seems pretty bad even when you do.
Anyone have suggestions for non emergency but still important doctor visits?
Thanks for indulging me and my rant,
Kaight
