Strike Three!!

This is the third postponement for my hip surgery. It was supposed to be Sept 30th and then Oct 14th and then Oct 21st and now they "can't give me a date."

I just keep telling myself killing him isn't worth it, but I'm not very convincing. How in God's name does this jackass have patients? Are they all held hostage to him by crappy insurance? I'm so angry.

Before you even think it, I tried to switch doctors the first time around. At least with the back surgery he was apologetic about postponing twice. I have no recourse if I complain I piss off the only guy in town who can fix my hip. If I say forget it the hip dies and slowly poisons me.

I really feel like he's avoiding me this time. Don't I deserve to feel better? Why is no one accounting for the upheaval in my life this caused? What now...

  1. This is just plain and simple un-fair! Unprofessional! I think it's your right to demand an explanation! What if you or Mike had jobs that required scheduling time off? How many times would your boss allow this?? Sorry to go on and on but.....
