Health Care Reform Can't Be Any Worse Than What We Have Now!

So today the girls insisted that we play Dr. So I show up to the Office 10 min early and the front desk girl (Lily) is super rude and asks for all my info and cards and stuff. I then proceed to wait in excess of 40 minutes for my appointment! I clearly saw 2 teddy bears, 1 power ranger, and a Dora show up way after I did and still get seen first. So I complain to the Front Desk girl and she says " sorry, you'll have to wait like everyone else!" I explained that I had been waiting for nearly an hour when she tells me "Sorry sir, it's not my Problem!"

So Finally I get called back by nurse Brendan who takes my height, weight and temperature. Not sure where the hell he went to nursing school at but my height was 1234, my weight was yellow, and my temperature was wiggles! So he puts me in the room where I have to wait another 30 min for Dr. Kendal to show up and then when she does she doesn't apologize for the wait and explains she can only spare 5 minutes! So I start to explain that I think I might have a cold when she leaves the room because her pager went off! She leaves for 20 min and comes back again with no apology! So I start to explain again when she interrupts me and tells me I have a broken arm! I said "are you Sure!" she says "yes! I am the Dr." So she gives me a referral and tells me she sent a script to my pharmacy.

So I go to see the Radiologist Dr. Brendan....who looks suspiciously like Dr. Kendal's Nurse! He Proceeds to have me lay down to take the x-ray and then says.."Lets dance!" I said " No, I just wan the x-ray of my arm" he said "belbow?" I said .."I guess..elbow might be it?" then hes says "okay, all done! Cheese!" I didn't see him push a button or anything....once again...not sure about this guys qualifications!

So then I am off to the pharmacy! I swear the pharmacist is the same snotty front desk girl from Dr. Kendal's office and her assistant Dexter. The girl tells me that they haven't got my script. So I have to call Dr. Kendal's office over 5 times to get it straightened out. Finally the pharmacy gets my script and I am told that this medication is not covered and doesn't have a generic. So after charging me $923,493 I got my meds. I open the paper bag and in it is a sandwich size ziplock bag filled with Capn' Crunch cereal! What the heck..am i buying weed from a teenager or is this the 'Super Monkey Happy Pharmacy' the front desk told me it is? Ziplocks? If that is not enough I see lil red and blue specs in there but no crunch berries! Then I see Pharmacist Lily and her assistant Dexter both have red and blue smiles! I think they ate my super expensive meds! So I ask how many of these should I take and when... she said " eat them all! eat them or go to time out!" So I ate them all at once, hope I don't OD....not sure how safe this is!

This is the last time I use Happy Unicorn Fairy Insurance! well...until my Orthopedic appt next weak with a Dr. Brendan!
