Too Ambitious

My surgeons scheduling nurse was a little too ambitious today and had me excited for nothing

She let me know my insurance was approved (YAY!) and to set my surgery day for 5/19 along with my post-op visits too

But then.....

On top of an already f*cked day, hours into my excitement, she calls back to tell me the doctor denied that day for me. The nurse hadn't even confirmed all of that before calling me to schedule. My whole thing is, she should know people are most anxious and excited for this step in the process. These dates and things need to be set in stone at least with the office before even thinking about calling the patient.

Now I'm annoyed and a projected date can't even be confirmed or denied now....back to waiting....

it could be that something came up at the last minute for the surgeon. Or maybe he had something going on that day that he forgot to mark on his office calendar.
