i’m beginning to wonder who you have to skullfuck around these parts for decent medical care. and not even getting into the whole public-vs.-private health coverage/insurance/clusterfuck debate, just simply: where are the decent doctors? and how can a fully-insured citizen go about obtaining their expertise and services?
it’s god damned maddening and a waste of time and money for all involved (but namely, me) going through all these incompetent assholes (namely, my former PCP — aka dr. shitty fuckflaps) and dealing with mis-diagnosis, inattention and stupidity.
anyway, as of god knows when (but i was officially notified on the 16th), i am officially no longer a patient of dr. shitty fuckflaps. he didn’t have the courtesy to notify me himself, and therefore, he can go fuck himself with a chainsaw for all i care. but, he was a major problem as far as my personal health goes.
incompetent, bullying at times, inattentive, dismissive, brusque, inflexible and as far as all written correspondence goes: barely literate. i think those very first visits with him where he’d basically throw an unholy amount of free prescriptions my way (mostly unnecessary) were just to disguise the fact that he had the bedside manner of a drunk hobo, and the social skills of a retarded squirrel.
in case it’s not apparent, i fucking LOATHE dr. fuckflaps. seriously.
back in june i mentioned a condition i was experiencing during our routine annual exam. he completely dismissed me. then proceeded to pull me in for follow up after follow up that didn’t really address my concerns but created a whole fuck ton of other concerns, problems, medical bills and unnecessary procedures. plus i had to choke down a bevy of drugs that i was uncomfortable with and did not really experience any results from.
time, money, energy wasted. he sent me to two additional medical facilities that were also epic failure. though, to their credit, in at least one instance, the doctors were a bit more tolerable.
dr. fuckflaps told me flat out on one occasion that unless i did what he said without question he would no longer provide treatment for me. on another occasion he admitted that he had no idea how to treat something he was guessing i had, but that he diagnosed me as such mainly so someone else could deal with it.
in august, september and october i reiterated to him my initial condition. i explained it to 2 other physicians (associated with dr. fuckflaps).
i was met with dismissive inattention.
in january, things got worse/significantly changed. i saw another doctor as a last resort, a specialist whom i had only seen a handful of times before for a very particular area. i explained my condition (which had actually gone on since LAST january), the doctor prescribed me some pills, set up a follow up exam, and upon follow up ran some blood tests.
i just got my diagnosis.
everything about it falls in line with all the other crap i have gone through.
if i could burn the flesh right off of dr. fuckflaps body with merely the powers of my mind, you better fucking believe that rat bastard would be a smoldering pile of shit right now.
unfortunately, my good doctor cannot be my pcp as well (conflicting practices), but i will be trying out new ones this week.
i’m also a little annoyed that i probably didn’t have to go through the trouble and effort to get sterilized since apparently now it’s almost positive that i am infertile to begin with.
not that i ever would have found out this information from dr. fuckflaps. because, as i’ve stated before, he’s something of a giant, incompetent dick.
