I have had good experiences as an in-patient and a couple of horrific ones. You really need a good health care advocate to ask questions when you aren't able too..My hubby is not good at that so I have asked my best friend to do it....MichelleRambling Woodshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15080120317890707767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2618685271512418876.post-15975230413692489522010-05-12T10:45:13.691-04:002010-05-12T10:45:13.691-04:00My former doctor had an overheated waiting room an...My former doctor had an overheated waiting room and he was always running 30 min behind ... that is why he is now my ex-doc .. the new doc has never kept me waiting .. her waiting room is big, airy w/lots of windows .. did I mention no waiting?Darylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08241795455748298624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2618685271512418876.post-17486909200971549902010-05-12T02:15:46.108-04:002010-05-12T02:15:46.108-04:00Thnaks for this, Bobbie.

Mostly, I just find the whole experience too full of tension to get much out of. I'll try looking for the good there. British hospitals are usually very clinical places, with little thought put into making them particularly pleasant places to be. They do try but I think that if they took a more holistic approach to their care, they may have even greater success with people. I must say, though, that I have been fortunate to have been looked after by some great people, so I shouldn't complain.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2618685271512418876.post-13662647531602943322010-05-11T23:25:56.602-04:002010-05-11T23:25:56.602-04:00Ah...the waiting room.

In the examination room (second waiting area) all I can do is talk to myself and read boring charts until the doctor finally arrives.christopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08717459430504797508noreply@blogger.com
