Aunty B and The Battle With The WANGSTER

[binaryalchemist]

I've been feeling ill and in a good bit of pain lately. In fact, quite a lot of pain. Long story short--a kidney infection so bad it requires TWO antibiotics. Since I can't see Dr K after work I had to get in line at 7:45 am and wait for the doors to open for a chance to get in early. And Dr. Wang the Incompetent was there. The one who told me "you have a pulled muscle" when I had THREE kidney stones last year.

He gave me attitude. His nurse was a CUNT, not a description I use often. I had to DEMAND certain tests be run. He tried to rush me out. I raised hell and demanded he run the goddamn test. BINGO. Second strain of bactiera found.

Fortunately--there is a very fine doctor right down the street from my office. It is open until 8pm--I get off at 6:30--seven days a week---and he is on the list for our HMO. I will see them Monday and discuss transfering my care to Dr. Gibbs instead---one of my friends goes there and loves him. Dr K has been my doctor for five years--I trust her, and she's wonderful--but if I can't be under her care...they can shove Dr. Wang's wang up his wingwang.

There's something incredibly wrong when the patient is a better diagnostician than the doctor. Good lord.
