Going there tomorrow. Only found out today they are not doing live reads anymore, Bec of Covid. There goes long distant.appointment up to 14months between mamos, just to get a live read. That is not all. They take one set of pictures you dress and leave. Forget the 100 mile round trip and getting up at 4 am to get there. They make you come back.
Now, I get it about Covid. But Covid hit the fan last March. Were they too busy chasing their tails to Notify people who had upcoming appointments about these changes well in advance of this. The secretary who I did the Covid questionnaire with mentioned it as she was hanging up the phone today, the day before the appointment, and said as you know, no live reads. They connected me with their empty suit office manager who was as good as nothing.
Instead of shooting the breeze and chasing your tails, get out your computer AND WARN PEOPLE OF THESE CHANGES - AND I DON'T MEAN THE DAY BEFORE. I and everyone else could have made other arrangements, in my case, a center closer to me on August 29, one year and one day after last year. While I wouldn't have been thrilled about this news, if I got it in March or April,. I would not be complaining. Why does this horrific Covid 19 bring out the ignorance, stupidity, and unsympathetic in people, even our HEALTH HEROS -- LOL.
Ok, today my appt, was even a worse experience. Starting with the rude secretary, who didn't like me calling her out about her confusing me with the patient listing under my name. She started ranting and raving to her co worker, as I sat nearby trying to fill out paperwork. People, it was before 9 am and barely 2 other patients around, tired already? Or the wrong time of the month, hangover maybe. Insulting me to my face in front of her coworker and other patients AT THE TOP OF HER LUNGS! Believe it or not, things got even worse from there. The mammographer was nice, or so I thought, until I was exiting the area, and I caught her and her empty suit boss laughing and insulting me, at the top of their lungs. Oh, empty suit - a hint to his name - something like- Pillsbury Dough Boy, which also describes his appearance. Once again, they knew I was nearby, and were shouting! I wish I had thought to use my phone to record these A holes. I just could not believe my ears. The mammographer told doughboy that I asked for her name and that I was going to ask for her next year. Don't flatter yourself Margie. I said no such thing. After she said this to doughboy she broke out into hysterical laughter.
B****, I THOUGHT you were nice. You people are all despicable, and aren't fit to shovel horse sh**, never mind healthcare. HEALTH CARE HEROES. You should lose your jobs. Your a disgrace to healthcare. Tell me, do you tear apart cancer patients. BTW, I am precancerous, did I deserve this treatment yesterday and today? read more
