I know this is totally bizarre to post, but I have to bitch somewhere: I have what might be a malignant melanoma (skin cancer). I can’t get an appointment with a dermatologist for weeks because they’re too busy Botoxing people. One dermatologist said she couldn’t see me until FEBRUARY! What the fuck is wrong with our medical system? ---

so are you trying to find a doctor that’ll work with your healthcare or something? maybe your healthcare sucks… but i’d venture to say that you can find a dermotogist in town that can take you sooner than months away… ---

I’ve never had a problem with going to the doctor, of course if you are going to see a specialist then it might take some time to get in. ---

yeah its real hard to get in with a dermatologist down here. Usually at least a 2-3 month wait. That must be a hell of a profession, to have people lined up 3 months ahead of time waiting for your services. ---
