It should be OK though... I mean, they took my card and charged the proper co-pay. Good signs so far.<br /><br />And my Dr was a grizzled veteran... not a snot nosed kid at all. But I'm glad that I just had a run-of-the-mill bronchitis, and not some exotic eye disease that because a test case for interns.bluzdudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05991272670722362652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-329507352453931374.post-87193395046129438742012-08-13T17:51:42.862-04:002012-08-13T17:51:42.862-04:00Thanks MBG.

Some insurance companies ream you for going not going through a preferred provider and recommends you to a specialist. Maybe this place is different.<br /><br />Last time I was at one of those places was when I was on vacation and had a virus attacking the skin next to my eye. My eye was almost swollen closed. All the "docs" were interns who had never seen such a thing before. They all crowded in the room to get a look. Someone in the back literally yelled, "Somebody get a camera!" <br /><br />I knew I was screwed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-329507352453931374.post-78810084539415943742012-08-13T13:36:29.064-04:002012-08-13T13:36:29.064-04:00GAH!

Pass the meds, my friend!<br /><br />On a serious note, I'm very glad to hear you finally went to the doc - I was worried after reading about hocking up the butterscotch, and the crippling back pain. <br /><br />Back to the humor - you do realize the pills you're taking are made from the hormones of pregnant mares? Nope, I'm not making that up.Kernut the Blondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12574615742310337050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-329507352453931374.post-46649125335931080842012-08-11T11:08:08.665-04:002012-08-11T11:08:08.665-04:00Drugs and beer... absolutely.

These urgent care places like Patient First are the best. Our son who lives in Shadyside (college junior) was sick a few weeks ago...so sick that he could not raise his head above the pillow and could not drive himself anywhere and no roommates were around during the weekend (well, one was but she was too busy hanging out with her boyfriend to be bothered to come home and drive him to the doctor). So we trapsed out to the 'burgh from the other 'burg (Harrisburg) and took him to UMPC Shadyside's urgent care place (less than a mile from his house) on a Saturday evening around 7 pm. That place was AMAZING. A liter and 1/2 of IV fluids later, his fever of 102.5 started to go down. They tested him for mono (negative, thankfully) and gave him a z-pak prescription. There was no waiting, and the doctors and nurses were great. These places are such a better option than going to the ER or having to wait days to get an appointment with your primary care physician.Deb Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01071356558083822955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-329507352453931374.post-59717385972284233692012-08-09T21:22:50.853-04:002012-08-09T21:22:50.853-04:00Book of Newton, ha!
