Yeah, this is not a carry-in place.

I’m walkin’, yes indeed. And I’m talkin’ about you and me. I’m hopin’ that you’ll come back to me, yeah.

Yep the so called medical system in action in the good ole US of A.

Makes sense, those stretcher cases take up far too much space in the waiting room.

Back in the bad old days ER staff called those "GOMER"s

Get Out Of My Emergency Room

Not a “cash and carry” clinic.

While I get the joke I’d say in his condition, an ER might be more appropriate.

Everyone’s met a Nurse Stckler at some point. Always rigid and without a sense of humor.

My doctor usually 4 to 6 months out on appointments. Called urgent care for knee pain and made an appointment. Arrived on time. Wasn’t seen for 3 hours. Finally got X-rays. No doctor. Nurse practitioner tells me about all about knee anatomy and never moves or touches my leg. Tells me to take a Tylenol. Charge: nearly $400.
