Group based care 💀💀💀💀

Sounds terrible

😌 Good vibes |

They’re trying to be nice about it to their credit. It’s a tough sell 

Would you rather have 

- months wait
- group care 
- see a PA

Of these options, see a PA while I wait for the months for my PCP if necessary. 

I feel fortunate to be in a somewhat unique situation with my dr. He recently moved from the hospital group he was with to run a smaller group that focuses on care over $$$. I can get in most often in two weeks or less.

FWIW these waits are for specialists not PCP or family med

Yeah that’s your new “support group” 😅

Oh ya. Don't mind me I'm not all here sometimes 😅

So wild tho. Like say I need a back surgery. The idea of me sitting in the room with one or more other people waiting on the dr to come in and talk to all of us simultaneously is weird
