[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 307024, member: 84"] :rofl: I get to do that because this drive me nuts. :angry: It is ridiculous. AND I refuse to comply. And you know what? They deal with it because I give them no choice. I've not sat in the waiting room or exam room any longer due to the fact that I refuse to come in early to a doctor who already has me on file ect. I won't even do the "come a half hour in advance" for a new doctor bit. Funny thing, if I'm not done filling out paperwork that takes less than 10 mins to do by the time they call me back, I can finish it while waiting on the doctor. OH, and have you noticed?? Most of the time any info you put down (say medication history) is no where to be found when the doctor is asking you the same darn questions.:angry: My other pet peeve is when I give the medical assistant (that is who's working in doctor offices now) either my background or the symptoms that brings me in........they [B][I]never[/I][/B] get it right.......and I wind up having to repeat the whole thing for the doctor anyway. No wait, the medical assistants I [B]love[/B] are the ones that you give your dxes to and they haven't a clue what you're talking about!:surprised1: Or the ones I seem to get who can't read to take down a b/p properly......and I have to give them the correct numbers. (irks them everytime) I've met a few medical assistants who do their job well........too bad most of them only seem to do it well when behind the desk, cuz with patient care they usually hoover. ugh Gawd I hate going to docs anymore. Although new fam doctor actually has a nurse instead of a medical assistant.....who gets your info right the first time, makes sure doctor reads it.......and that was awesome! No, it's not just you.
