No the tide had turned and it got lumpy on the way home. The first picture is 7am low slack.

There has to be doctors on your side of the bay. Bill Gates doesn't have enough money to get me to go to Seattle.

I had to go to Virginia Mason to see a specialist, unfortunately.

I have been going through a cluster F with doctors for almost a year. Got referred to a specialist over by Boise in May. The appointment wasn't until mid June. Went there. By late July I hadn't heard back in any manner. I called and was told they had no record of the doctor seeing me. They wanted to set me up with another consultation in mid August. I went out on my own and found a good specialist in La Grande. The way things are going some medical professional is at risk of getting their ears burnt.

yeah, unfortunately it will end up being the doctor's nurse, or worse the receptionist.

It has been incompetent staff causing most of the issues. The first several months it was a doctor and a PA just throwing antibiotics at things rather that trying to find the cause of the issue. I finally got after the doctor which resulted in that first specialist referral. The entire process doesn't exactly create confidence in the medical profession in general.

ya gotta keep your eye on the prize, staff is really good at medical coding and that keeps the cash flow going, so that's the main thing
That sounds about what I am going through trying to see a doctor.
I went in for an appointment with a doctor that i had set up. Had to reply yes to a message they sent me on my phone letting them know i would be there and was keeping the appointment.
Got there the time and day of the appointment and they checked their computer and it didn't show I had an appointment ?
Showed then the message their clinic had sent to me and that i had confirmed I was going to be there. And they didn't have an answer for what had happened or why it didn't show up in their computer ?
