Pix 4 Posted July 2, 2008 So yesterday I went in for my first fill. I should have known something was wrong when they couldn’t find my appointment in the system. They found the ‘mistake’ appointment that had been made and canceled, but they couldn’t find my actual appointment. They finally found it in the walk in book. Ok, so what ever I go sit and start reading because I know I am going to be a while. I finally get called back for my vitals, sent back to the waiting area. After 30 minutes I finally get called back in and ushered into a room. A brand new, as in it was his first day ever) intern came in and asked me why I was there, any complaints etc, and then left. Back to reading, 15-20 minutes later the charge nurse came in and told me that someone messed up and put me in the wrong area for the fills. Well she said she was going to go talk to my surgeon to see if he could see me right away, he couldn’t but he could see me “in about 10 minutes”. Well it takes how ever long to hit the port, then the 30-45 minute wait to make sure I won’t gag on the Water etc. I just couldn’t stay, my sitter had an appt at 4:30 and I told her I would be back by 4 to get the kids so they could leave. I wasn’t happy at all, but I kept all nice and smiles because you don’t want to piss off the people that will be jabbing you with needles. LOL Anyhow they are booked through the rest of the month but they are sliding me in on a “non appointment” for next Tuesday to actually get my fill. I am not happy about how yesterday panned out but what are you going to do right? Stuff happens then you get over it and move on. Sorry for the Novella but I needed to rant a bit .... :thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
