Considering doctors can barely write in a legible form, why does this surprise you? ;-)

Maybe that's a true statement. Drs. LUV to make you wait. :)

Or maybe they mean something like...we added a new transponder machine that can diagnose ANY problem yet takes 20min longer...?

Did you point this out to them? :) Maybe they're unaware.

I have a feeling that this was typed up by someone on the administrative staff. Still, you'd think *someone* would have picked up on it by now.

And, jk, pointing it out would have been the nice thing to do. But I couldn't quite find the right time during my physical to bring it up.

A few weeks back I pointed out to the admin staff at my dentist's office that the time they'd written on my appointment card and the time the receptionist had insisted I scheduled 6 months ago did not match. You would have thought I'd accused all of them of eating newborn babies. One quickly grabbed the evidence, the card, out of my hand and threw it away.

Hmmm, I think you confused me with aharris, although the resemblence is uncanny.

The paintings/prints at my allergist's office are always crooked, and after many years, I finally asked them if I could straighten them, and they didn't mind!

Dentists are really stupid sometimes too. Once I had to get a few teeth pulled & he didn't let the novacaine start working so my mouth didn't go numb until *after* the pain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I haven't or said anything nice to the moron or smiled at the stupid dentist since.
