Running five minutes behind, only four handicap parking spots at the hospital, and only one person at the check-in desk and she was on the phone until finally another gal started helping, all equaled me checking in 14 minutes late for my appointment. They have a 15-minute cut-off. My doctor refused to see me. 🤬 What is the f***** point of checking-in on MyChart if I still have to check-in at the desk?? 🤬
The next available isn’t until the end of the month, so I’ll be calling to check on cancellations. Oh and when the front desk woman told me that appointments are only 15 minutes and that’s why my doctor can’t see me, I’m thinking in my head, “There is no way 15 minutes is going to be long enough to deal with all the things I need to talk about.” I’ve never seen her for only 15 minutes.
@see_the_sus American healthcare is lousy. I am so sorry.
@see_the_sus that is some straight bullsh*t 😡, I think I might have thrown a fit if that was me.
Your doc really refused to see you over something that was out of your hands??? Thats not fair at all.
I came pretty close to doing that. I thought about telling them they owe me gas money.
Two weeks ago, I had to get very loud with a nurse at my primary’s clinic because she didn’t return two separate MyChart messages and numerous calls to in which the phone folks sent emails to the clinic director and management.
In addition to that incident, two of my orthopedic doctors,( spine & hip), have refused to co-sign my application for disability.
This year has been frustrating. 😞
