I have a family doctor. I put myself on a waiting list and got one.

Then he quit.

Then a doctor took over for him and I hate this guy.

What kinda snowflake am I, right? But I go in because I want to talk to him about xyz and he doesn't address it at all. Every 4 months it's another fucking test for ancillary shit and I still need something fixed.

Are they trying to wait my middle-aged ass out? Like maybe I'll randomly get a bigger problem so they don't have to schedule an ER for a 35-min procedure?

Checkmate, bitch. I'm moving across the street from the hospital, across the street and down from the lab and a block away from the doc's office. I'll do all the tests and X-rays and shit until I wait YOU out. I'll do appointments every day.
