Someone left me this as neg rep:
I absolutely did not miss the point. To be sure in every profession there are hacks. Those hacks need to be called out by either online reviews or a complaint directly to them. You're paying good money to see them and if you're not getting the appropriate service back, then do something about it. Call your insurance company. As consumers, we have choices and if you don't explore those options you're throwing money out the window. Again, I think once you get married and have kids, it's a game changer and you owe it to them to stay healthy and get your yearly physical. Cancer is so prevalent in our society and so costly to treat that you owe it to your family to stay up on things.
I am rather lucky in my situation with health insurance. Im in the union here at work, so my health insurance is paid for. Well, as of last year, we now have a 10 dolla co-pay. No big deal. Anyway, the way it works for us is, we have a health center and that's where we go if we have any issues. Just call, make an appointment and see the Doc. I've gone more than a few times over the years and I've seen a bevy of most of their Docs. Some are better than others in regards to attentiveness, but they all come into the room, sit down and talk to you, which in my experience is the most important thing.
The last three times, Ive seen this one guy. Young guy. He's always been respectful, forthright and I feel comfortable with him. He asks the right questions and he seems genuinely concerned. He does his job and he does it well. So much so that I've called the health center to give him a positive review. If I ever want a referral to a specialist, I ask and it's done. I consider myself very, very lucky in this respect.
you missed the point. doctors are paid to do the right things for you. If they don't they should lose their customers. Not a hate issue.
