i am approved but not by the dr who i have been going to for over 6 months his staff has reallly given me a hard hard time almost from the very first day.i got with some friends who suggested another dr i consulted with him and he approved me i had lost all faith in my first dr just because of his staff they dont know how to deal with the public at all and they have been very demeaning to me from day 1 i have talked with a lot of people and they all agree with me the things that one of his staff said to me was well worse than terrible just to put it nicely on my part cause what i am at some point of time cant be repeated here anyway and i will not say here i just know that when u do evil to others or wrong others it will come back to u and it will haunt u too so beware you people

Straight Talk! Becoming More Assertive

i am beginning to believe that because i stood up for my self that the staff at the surgeons office is aqainest me having my surgery they have done every thing in their power to keep me from having the surgery even saying i am not mentally stable enough for the procedure i have received notes from all my drs saying i am mentally stable and a good candidate for the procedure personally i think all the surgeons staff has no training on dealing with people and they all are in the wrong line of work -
