I don't know if this survey is for my mammogram appointment or my annual check-up appointment. The annual was very good...really like my doc (Dr. Sandra Van Leuven)...answered all my questions. The mammogram however, went well (friendly )technician BUT...I had to wait over a week for the results. That's inexcusable. We have a trip planned overseas and I needed to know that my results were good before I could relax and start preparing for our trip. In the future, I will only get a mammogram where I can get the results right away.

I hadn't been able to see a cardiologist before I needed to see my GP. So three were things I didn't understand , but I needed to get my prescriptions sent in to my part D, Medicare insurer. That was only partly done, and .I had to ask my Dr. To find that out. There were reasons why my Dr. Didn't want to send the three meds I asked her to send in, but she wasn't talking to me about those reasons. I agree I put her in a bad position, but even after almost a month since my heart attack,I still hadn't been able to see a cardiologist, who could make sure the three meds that had been proscribed by the Dr, at the hospital we're sent in to my part D provider. I didn't know what else to do at that point. I'm grateful she was there.
