4. I just went through an ordeal...

With a health care facility, whom I was considering as my primary care place, and decided against it when they tried to run me through a chiropractor when I needed something entirely different and told them so at every step. They lied and tried to get me to believe that a chiropractor was going to perform a particular form of PT on me. Neither profession intermingle that I know of. When I complained about the issue, after hours of my time wasted, they told me that I would have to wait weeks to see a Physical Therapist and I came in complaining of lower back pain so, of course, they shuffled me off to a chiropractor. I have tendinitis, a chiropractor isn't going to help that and I know this.

So I canceled my intake with them and am flying off plan, I have medicare but not a provider, yet. Our health care system is barely that. Something really has to be done about how fucked up it is for people to get care of most kinds in this country.
