New Patient Experiences

Posted on 12:27 by gowtyer
I am having a health issue that was concerning enough to me to want a mammogram immediately. After working hard, I found somewhere that would give me a same day appointment. When I asked f they did same day results, they said it is usually 48 hours. Who comes up with this stuff? Apparently not someone who is worried about something on a Friday. Not someone who doesn't want to worry all weekend if it isn't necessary. And certainly not someone who wants answers to her concerns. I even asked if I could pay more to get it read today, and they said no.

So, I called my doctor back and asked if he could order it stat. The nurse said she would ask and put me on hold. She came back as said, why do you need it stat? Seriously? So I told her that I didn't want to be worrying all weekend and that I am very nervous about it. She said ok, and they faxed over a stat script.

We will see how it works out.
