I told my partner it'd be fine having this appointment before her job interview, there's plenty of time, well, it's 25 minutes in and the fucking doctor still hasn't come in. It's supposed to be a fucking 30 minute appointment!

Drove an hour to the nearest urgent care that my insurance covered

Shit like this is so foreign to me, ya'll have to pay an arm and a leg for medical care and you can't even just go to whichever ER is closest/most convenient? You really have to search for the "correct" ER while having a medical emergency??

i just got admitted yesterday, met with some drs and they did a ct head scan and the bill was immediately $32k and they came around to collect $3k from me before they even knew what my problem is
