Chicken 05/10/18 7:08:06 AM #1:	Any time I feel like I have a medical issue everyone says oh you should see a doctor. I dont have a family doctor and theyre impossible to get, and the walk-in clinics have shit doctors that only check a single problem and shove you out the door without actually taking the time to confirm the issue. Theyll just shove a prescription for some random anti biotic in your hand and kick you out the fucking door. --- https://i.imgur.com/2FgO73L.png <cite>Chicken posted [p:901101357] in How do I g...

stone 05/10/18 9:04:45 AM #14:	There has to be a list somewhere you can put your name on for a family doctor. Might take a while, but once you have a doctor it's easier afterwards. I had to see mine not long ago, but couldn't get an appointment 'til like a month and a half later, and I wasn't going to wait for that, so the clinic my doctor is at scheduled me an appointment with one of their nurses, she did all the same check ups the doctor would have done, and gave me prescriptions for what I needed and blood checks and all that shit, and set up a follow-up appointment for the test results for the next week. If I hadn't had a doctor, I couldn't have had half of that, I'd have had to waste time at the emergency room and see a random doctor who'd have just shrugged and told me to sleep it off. --- PONG WAS REAL?

The Top Crusader 05/10/18 9:17:18 AM #19:	I'm with you TC in that doctor stuff can be kind of confusing. I don't have a "family doctor," either, I just go to the urgent care place on the rare occasion I need to go. But like I have really been having a lot of trouble with my knee and its obviously not broken or something so going to urgent care would be dumb, I have no idea where to even go for something specific like that that isn't an emergency but should probably be looked at. --- https://imgur.com/09qFfLV <cite>The Top Crusader posted [p:901104929] in How do I g...

I have insurance and prefer the walk-in clinic. If I dont need to see a specialist, I can pay them $85 and never see another bill for anything they do for me. X-rays, shots, wound care, etc are all included. I tried filing with my insurance there once and had to pay more. Therefore, I just tell them I want the cash price. They dont see my insurance card, and I never see a bill. I think most would actually prefer this. --- Polite fiction is still fictitious even when no one is offended. <cite>C7D posted [p:901105024] in How do I g...
