Another OB rant
Ok all the drama with the OB office as to sending me to collection for a $2.00 copay then they disengaged me from their practice and then our of the goodness of their hearts took me back (this said quite sarcastically). As if they are doing me a favor. Anyway I call their office to make an appointment and since I had a previous miscarriage Dr Kaczmierak wanted to do immediate blood work up to make sure this lil babe is sticking. Now I happened to loved his doctor he was gentle and kind. The office well that’s another story. So I get a call back and they inform me that the doctor is not taking any new ob patients with my insurance, I say I’m not new, she says “yeah but this pregnancy is new and we aren’t taking you.” Nice. Real flipping nice. So not only am I hormonal as hell but this woman is mocking me. I gave her a polite piece of my mind, meaning I didn’t swear or scream (although I wanted to). I believe I got my thoughts across. If not, here they are: I’m not an Insurance, I am a person. I pay my bills and I demand some respect and to be treated right. You are actually employed by me and if their are no patients then you are unemployed. And lastly: Karma is a bitch, what comes around goes around.
I worked for a doctor for 10 years and we never ever treated a patient wrongly. If we even had a problem or were the slightest bit rude we were in trouble. The doctor was the boss. That being said maybe the doctor wasn’t as kind and gentle as I thought. Needless to say I have found another doctor and the office is very respectful and nice. I haven’t met the doctor yet but if the office staff is any indication of the doctor then I will be happy for the next nine months.
