  1. Ok, Rob, this is how you get an appointment with your dermatologist in the next few days. Just call them and tell them how bad it is getting and how nervous you are and ask them if you can call them twice a day to see if there are any cancellations. They will fit you in.

  2. exp text and donatella
    are both right.

    I’m used to writing electronic notes
    in a clear and concise manner such as
    this.

    on the other hand,
    I like to have my own
    posting/poetic style. 😉

    as I’ve said before,
    if you scroll back on
    my posts.
    you’ll have one endless
    and non-sensical poem.

  3. Legion, that all sounds well and good, but I really think Kens’ explanation of the doctors spending their time on blogs is the problem.

    🙂

    lol,
    this may very well account for the exploding healthcare
    costs in the past 10 years.

  4. Rob, I went to a eyeglass place – 10/10 optics. They examine your eyes, then you pick out a nice pair of frames, and then they give you a shot of amaretto or drambuie or something, you get a little wobbly to prepare you for the bill.

  5. The problem I have is the longer I wait, the higher my BP goes and then he has to check it, which is why I am there!!!!!

    In fact, my doctor will spend as much time in the room as is necessary so, once I’m in there, i never feel I’m getting short-changed on my visit.

  6. I get so antsy waiting for lengths of time, that it is a factor on who I deal with. Sometimes, things happen and delays can’t be helped – there are emergencies. But for the doctors I need to see – I have to say that I don’t have to wait long (and there is a little pressure to be on time myself, that is part of the deal naturally…). Thank God, I don’t have a heart condition.

    But this cardiologist I had a “date” with didn’t even think he needed to explain. When I casually asked “so, did you just save a life?” he looked a little confused and explained about all his paperwork… All RIGHT, then.
