Your FIRED!
« on: December 21, 2017, 07:12:57 AM »
One of the drawbacks of moving about the country is finding quality service people AGAIN. Plumbers, carpenters, mechanics, and doctors come immediately to mind. As expected, we are having these challenges as we settle in full-time at the redoubt.

Now that we are retired, I am handling most of the plumbing, carpentry, et cetera projects around the cabin but alas I have to still hire a doctor, lawyer, accountant, et cetera.

Without doing the usual research I do, I threw caution to the wind and went with the first doctor that was recommended to me by MrsMac's health care system - Wrong move.

In short I have gone to this doctor four times since April and after the last visit I terminated her employment.

In essence I found her to be:
> Un-engaged,
> Autocratic,
> Condescending, and
> Just plain rude.

Now this post is not about me other than to use as an example and encourage the folks on this forum to not put up with less than stellar performance from folks you hire. Let it be a lawyer, accountant, plumber, OR a Doctor.

There are a number of websites which post reviews of various medical professionals.  Yelp is one of them, but there are some medically dedicated websites too.  I had to visit a specialist yesterday, and his on-line reviews were mixed, and one review indicated he didn't like patients asking questions.  Well, I keyed in on that, and asked numerous questions, which were answered patiently and thoroughly.  So, I would take any reviews with a grain of salt, unless they were overwhelmingly bad.

 We were very lucky when we moved here. We seemed to have picked the best of everyone, if not the best darn close.

Yeah Jackalope, Yelp is a good one for reviews.

To add to my story, to make sure I spelled her name correctly and had the correct address I went to Yelp and VOILA! Ther was a dozen or so reviews from patience and guess what? On a 1-5 scale with 5 being excellent, she was rated a '2.7'. Nobody had rated her higher than a '3'. LOL.

And JoJo, you are lucky to have hit the lotto with Dr.'s.  :thumbsUp: I guess it is true, "Even a blind squirrel finds a nut on occasion."   :lmfao:
