Healthcare Rant

Savanna

Idk what else to do. I just need to rant. I have not seen my primary care doctor in literally years. The last few times I have seen a doctor over the past couple of years have been either at the other location of the same medical group or an urgent care doctor. The purpose of a pcp is to form a relationship with them and they get to know you and your medical history, and you get comfortable discussing things with them. I have been having an issue for literally a month and there are no appointments with the people that I have seen before. I just hate having to start over every time with a different doctor. I don't want to have to do that again. Idk it's just really upsetting me. I really feel like the pandemic destroyed everything. I thought the issues with getting appointments would clear up a couple years after the pandemic, but it's 5 years later and it's still terrible. I don't want to wait 2 more weeks before seeing a doctor. I'm trying to see one before the pain happens again :(
