The doctor I see just wants to get you in and out as fast as possible. Every time I've seen them that's how they always are. Then I called today to see about getting an appointment for my leg because it is swelling and hurting. The nurse told me to go to the ER because it sounds like a blood clot. When I called back to ask to make an appointment instead of going to the ER, the receptionist said that my doctor was booked and to take the nurse's advice and go to the hospital. Go there and 2 hours later after tests, they tell me it's not a blood clot. I left my job early leaving my coworkers shortstaffed because I was scared to death that I have a blood clot and it wasn't. I will be finding out how to change my primary care doctor as soon as I can.
