I had an interesting day yesterday with some confusion by the office staff at my doctors office. Needed to go in for a slight "unfill". They called me right before one and asked me to be there at one (40 minute drive). Then they called at 3 to get me in at 3:45 when the doctor was to be back in the office from surgery. Well I made the trip and when I got there was told he had just gone into surgery at 3:30, another missed communication. Won't go on with the blow by blow, but at 5:30 I finally saw the doctor. The doctor took full blame and aplogized, I had another place for the blame.

At anyrate I get home today from work and I have flowers that have been sent by the doctors office with a note of aplogy. I have never in my entire life ever seen a doctor care one way or the other if the patients are inconvienced. I'm very impressed.

wow, That IS amazing.. as I was reading I was thinking " thats the breaks..it happens" and then they appologize in that way.. wow!

my fill doctor is also the nicest person I think I have ever met~

I went in today.. I called her around two and she said come when I can.. even though she had a full day .. it was also for a slight unfill..

and I was so sorry for that ya know and she said I was to come ANYTIME.. and NEVER worry about it.. (these unfills are only 25$!)

Salvaging the band is her first priority.... AND THATS SO ADMIRABLE

I love her

wow - now that is really something!!!!!!!! ITS UNHEARD OF! He must be a great doc - I still can't believe it!

You are definitely not in NY.

Good for you thatthey heard how upset you were.

My goodness, aneffie, that really is unusual! I've had amazing customer service in the past, but flowers? That's really terrific.

I'm impressed! I may get a personal phone/e-mail call on occasion, but never flowers!

WOW that is something... I am even impressed. Not many Dr.'s will do that.. enjoy!

Wow, that is awesome. I've NEVER heard of a doctor doing that. How totally sweet that was of him......Lucky you to have such a wonderful doctor. I have a great doctor too, but he'd never send flowers. LOL

Kay

AKA: Miss Losin Lot's......80 gone as of today. I'm thrilled!

Thats indeed rare.

How very nice of him! Talk about caring!

Kay, kudos on 80 lb. loss! That's a lot! How ya feeling?

That's so amazing, ecspecially when you're ALREADY his patient and chances are you don't have a ton of other options besides to go to this particular doctor for fills. In a world where human kindness and compassion is dwindling, it's so great to hear these kinds of stories. Thanks for sharing.

They are still pretty and sitting on my TV!

So if anyone needs a recommended surgeon in Western Washington let me know.
