SOS Doctors....

Well, yesterday was a washout, trying to get my prescriptions renewed.

I went to a new clinic that we registered for months ago, and have not yet heard back from. No luck, apparently after having to prompt from the medical office assistant what time they were open until, and clearly probing to find out IF THEY COULD SEE ME WHICH IS WHY I WAS STANDING THERE, I was informed they were not taking any more appointments. Funny, we're told to keep our visits short, yet an empty waiting room is an apparent challenge to their ability to help facilitate patients.

That's Strike Two for these turkeys, so I am done hoping they will grace me with the wonder of their awesomeness.

From there, I went to my old walk-in clinic, and was informed that even though they were open for several more hours, they in fact had NO DOCTORS in that day. Excellent. A good opportunity for the staff to catch up on their saved Solitaire games.

Also why I am looking for a new doctor...

I had already asked a diabetes nurse I'd seen in the past for some help, but no response, after a week of waiting. So, I am going to have to find a new clinic, and a new doctor again.  And as a person affected by diabetes, I will request a professional that actually runs a practice, for the purpose of having patients.

I also need to find someone pronto, as I am running out of my medications.....

Calgary Folk Club tonight, review tomorrow morning!

Later!

Ridiculous! You can't find a doctor in this town if you try. And if you do, you have to work with their schedule of only available 2 hours on 1 day of the week, and you have to guess the day! Idiots!
