It was time. I had no other choice. I broke up with my doctor. When you spend almost a year being ill and nothing is getting done or improving, the ability to reach them is near impossible, and the service from the office is horrid at best then it is time to break it off and find someone who will help... and that's exactly what I have done.
I have used all my resources and will meet my new doctor on the 21st. Not as soon as I would like but I am hopeful that I will be listened to and changes will come soon. Sometimes, just that glimmer of hope is enough to help you through until your next appointment. This practice has very high ratings in regards to quality of service and efficiency so that is good. The woman I spoke to on the phone was funny and very helpful. I was able to get Pokey registered too.
Yes, I have high hopes that things will begin to take a turn for the better this month. I really do. Most people view break ups as sad and mourn what once was... not me. I feel as though a weight has been lifted, some of the worry has left me, and a feeling of renewed hope has taken it's place. My only regret is that I didn't break up with her sooner. I wouldn't have tolerated such events from a retailer providing a service so why in the world should I accept it from my healthcare professional? While I value my yarn and all the fun crafty things that go with it, I do think my well-being is more important so I should give it as much respect as I give my crafts.
Onwards and upwards, and praying for answers - and solutions - before the month is out!
Congratulations on leaving a useless doctor. I hope your interview (also known as the 1st appointment) goes well. I would suggest treating it as an interview to see if you and your doctor are a fit and if the new doc has useful suggestions as to where to begin with your health issues. Keeping you in my thoughts.
