Rant

Seriously, if the dermatologist is concerned enough to want to take off a couple of chunks of skin (including one mole that has already been biopsied and come back benign), why schedule them more than a month out?

The nurse practitioner who saw me at the same office nearly two years ago thought the biopsied mole was fine & the dark one just needed to be watched. She told the tech to make a note of it (which apparently didn’t happen) but that it just needed to be watched.

Then the office’s phones were “messed up” when I tried to call to schedule the next day, and I was told by the answering service to call back the following day, which was Friday. I called back Friday only to be told that the office is closed Fridays. Thanks.

Give me a scalpel and some biopsy containers and I’ll do it myself for crying out loud.
