I have been so pleased with my family doctor. She was one of those rare ones who ACTUALLY CARED about me and gave me the best service I can ever remember receiving, and I might add, respecting my decisions for alternative methods of healing and she never tried to drive all these crazy pills down my throat...she looked for root causes to problems.. I called this morning for an appointment; and to get my prescription refilled..and what does the ignorant snotty bitch at the counter tell me?!! My doctor went back to school. Thanks for the notice. Thanks for giving me a new doctor. I asked about other doctors in the clinic and they have two that aren't accepting new patients.... So...basically...I'm screwed. I've been on the phone all morning trying to find a new doctor..and nobody is accepting anyone..including the public gardens clinic which I had formerly gone to. So...ummm...who's gonna check my blood tests when they come back??! Who the fuck is scheduling my allergy tests after I spent a number of days going to the ER in Anaphylactic shock..shouldn't a doctor be more sensitive to the needs of their patients...where do we find health care?! I guess I'll drag myself to the useless family focus to get my prescription refilled..I'm fucked. Thanks health care system...glad my tax dollars are helping to insure I'm looked after...This feels worse than getting dumped by a b/f anyday. : (

patients w/o patience
