Ugh, doctors!       01/04/05 07:12 PM Edit Reply Quote atomic rose Reged: 06/01/04 Posts: 7013 Loc: Maine (IBS-A stable since July '05!) Back when I was first diagnosed with gallstones, my doctor sent me to a surgeon, for a consultation about having my gallbladder removed. I sat in the waiting room for 1/2 hour. I then sat in a FREEZING exam room for close to an hour. The surgeon came in, was terribly rude, and talked to me for about 5 minutes, then referred me to a GI doc. The bill? $500. Thank goodness I had insurance at the time... I only paid a tiny copay. Doctors have a pretty good racket going, that's for sure. Mom was right - I should have gone to med school.
