Doctor Struggles
I was recently made aware that the place I was taken to be diagnosed with type 2 diabetes is actually a weight loss clinic. My mother made the appointment and selected the location after I was told I had trouble with the blood vessels in my eyes. Even attempting to take the current pandemic state into account, so far the doctors at this place have been less than professional. Not once have they kept an appointment on time, nor did they attempt to help out by giving me any information on my diagnosis beyond "We sent a prescription to the pharmacy you provided us with" and that was that.
Yesterday, despite taking my payment, they once more failed to call me for my appointment, and as it is now the weekend, I don't expect to hear from them until Monday at the earliest, and I expect absolutely no apology and nothing more than "We sent you a refill to the pharmacy you provided us with."
I am currently looking into finding somewhere new to go, and just wanted to put my anxiety/worries here so that hopefully it would help me relax a little.
To anyone who reads, thank you and good luck in your own struggles!
@SeptemberSpirits I can relate to the situation. I hope that you can find a good doctor/clinic.

Aww...hey there SeptemberSpirits..
I'm so sorry to hear that this has been going on for you. I can totally relate to this.. .I really dislike when medical professionals act anything but professional!...
Currently I am trying to get my own son an appointment for an ongoing issue he's been having for months. And at this point, I've tried 2 different places that are in network with our Healthcare coverage, and now neither one has yet to even call us back or touch base with us to get him a new patient appointment. Ugh....
I know how frustrating dealing with healthcare/coverages/issues can be... and I'm in healthcare. If only they would do their jobs right. And we know there is only so much we can do. I hope that all our issues go well and work themselves out soon! Good luck to you!
