Confusion Today

We were waiting for an appointment today. We have wonderful doctors but sometimes they "run behind." The sign says if your wait is longer than thirty minutes, notify the receptionist. After an hour, I did just that. Pleasantly. She was so nice and went to check. No, they hadn't forgotten us. (That happened many years ago and Lee was left sitting in a room for a shot that the doctor ordered and the nurses did not know he was sitting in there with the door closed.)

We finally got in. Mentioning a call we received this morning about an appointment next week, we were told we could disregard that call.  O.K. All is well and a new prescription replaces the need for a bone scan. Yay! Going over the info on the chart, the nurse asked where our street was located in Hutch, leaving out one letter. I wondered why she did that. Well, it was typed that way on the address line. She corrected that.

Earlier in the day at my appointment, they advised me to check all the info on the yearly check-up sheet. That had Lee's birthdate the same as mine.

Makes one wonder about errors.

  1. They are confused...and not you! Recently my husbands birthdate was incorrect at the VA Clinic almost took an act of congress and many ID's to get that straightened out.
