becca77 0 Posted January 31, 2007 Thanks guys, Mookie, your Doc happens to be my aunt so I don't want to go to her hee hee. She's a wonderful doctor though but I'm not telling my extended family about mu surgery. Your right that he's on a power trip, big time. BTW, did any of you have to pay for this to be done? He's charging me for it, I don't know how much yet. I think I need to find a new doc ASAP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mookie1 0 Posted January 31, 2007 Shut up...Mumsy is your Aunt? I always tell her I wished she was my Mom. Does this mean you went to Shep too? Holy accomplished family or what? Huh..small world. I won't mention that I know you to her...promise. Yep, had to pay for the paperwork too. I think it was 60$..her nurse/receptionist is a real hag though and would never let me get away with that.

Dame J 0 Posted January 31, 2007 Hey Becca my Dr. didn't charge me for the forms and she also took my blood so I would not have to go to the Lab. Phew saved me a trip there. Anyway she was great but I have to admit I thought that I was going to get charged because I noticed that she has charges for people that come in for physicals for their work, sports teams, etc. I guess her thought is that surgery (no matter if is cosmetic or not) is still surgery so why charge. Anyway your Dr. sounds like he/she needs an attitude adjustment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

becca77 0 Posted February 3, 2007 Sorry I've disappeared for a bit, trying to settle into our new house, wow, it's alot of work moving. So I went back to the doc first thing that next morning to get my bp re-measured, and guess what, it was fine. But the asshole that he is is still making me go to a specialist before he signs the forms!!! God I wish I had another doc. I will definately start looking for a new one once this settles down. But those of you from Alberta know what looking for a decent doc is like. Anyhoo, the disgustin opti-fast has started and because I don't have my fridge here yet I haven't been able to blend with ice and it is absolutely disgusting!

argon 3 Posted February 4, 2007 Those of us from Canada know what it's like to find a decent doc! I'd settle for having one, period. No, actually I wouldn't. I'd rather have a new doctor every time I go to a clinic than a horrible one EVERY time! But welcome back, congrats on the new place Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

angel bear 2 Posted February 8, 2007 Hold on Becca and think of the rewards - and the look on the Docs face when you're a winner at LOSING (yep Weight wise if you get my drift) Enjoy the little triumphs and hope you get your fridge soon so you can add some crushed ice.
