OSUT #250 - Happy Fall, Ya'll - smells like apple pie around here

[GregD]

I must say that my docs are very close to on time.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

Apparently I've never found the right person to complain to on a lot of things... not just the dr's office....

I assume there aren't any closer options for you? Heck, I hate that I have to drive to the northwest side of Indy to see my regular doctor, and that's only about a 25 minute drive each way. If I really wanted to, I could probably find a closer "in network" doctor, but I've been going to him for at least 35 years and I trust him. If he retires, I'll be looking elsewhere though.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

Evenin' Greg. My doc is usually pretty good about being on time too.

 

[Lpherr]

I don't have a regular Dr., but the last one I went to is only about 5 mins away. He was pretty good, but always wants everyone to go to Mishawaka to get blood tests before an appointment.

Mine has a blood lab right there in the office.

Evening all.
leftovers, turkey, butternut squash and green beans

He isn't overly expensive, and maybe that's one reason.
I went to him after I awoke one morning and couldn't hear anything.
I couldn't hear what he was saying and he called the Mrs. with instructions.
While I was there, he scheduled what I thought was a follow-up check.
He surprised me with the two-finger treatment. Fortunately, all was good.
Haven't been back.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

Evenin' Expat. I don't believe I've ever cooked a turkey other than at Thanksgiving.

 

[Lpherr]

Hello Expat

 

[GregD]

I wouldn't think he'd check "there" for a hearing problem!

I do one turkey a year also

 

[Lpherr]

Apparently, he said something to the effect, that at my age, it's time for a full physical.
Not being able to hear a word, I didn't realize that.
At least he didn't put his hands on my shoulders.

I take it you can hear OK now?

 

[Lpherr]

I take it you can hear OK now?

After that, even if I couldn't, I wouldn't let him do that again.

But yes, I can hear better now than I did for the past 20 years.

Just how long were his fingers?!

If both hands was on your shoulders that was not a finger.

Her GP is in town, 10 minute drive. It's the oncologist & hospital that are an hour drive. The oncologist also has an on site blood lab.

 

[ed1838]

Got at Dr office @ 1:58 for 2pm appointment. Then sat until just after 3:30 waiting to be seen.

Most of the time they want me there 15 minutes early just wait wait longer.
