Flea: I know we're talking physician's assistants here, but yours and Marnie's posts reminded me of this pharmacist that works at my fav mom and pop drugstore in this SMALL town. I LOVE the guy who owns it and the other lady pharmacist is great, but this cow is RUDE. Another lady who works there said they have complaints about her all the time.
First time she insulted me was when my gyno prescribed me about 30 Vicoprofen along with some other stuff. When she looked at the Vico prescription, she said, "Dr. Jones' writing is ALWAYS bad, but today it's unusually terrible - hmmmmmmm, this IS odd!" At first, it went over my head, but then it HIT me and I think I turned RED with anger. Heavens no, I did NOT write my own rx!
THEN I went through cancer surgery and treatment for 18 months and used my ONE pharmacy, as usual. The Best Kept Off the Board woman asked me, in front of customers; some who I knew, "are you getting ANOTHER procedure? You sure take a LOT of Percocet. Um, Hummmm".
This week, I finally went to a PM doc and took my scripts in to be filled and SHE was there. When she filled my script for the 90 Vicoden, she said, LOUD and CLEAR, "you'd better be careful with these.....ESPECIALLY YOU!" I almost jumped over the counter and strangled her.
I finally did cry in my car. I don't know WHY I take this from her, either. I'm NOT a pushover in real life. I can see why Flea and Marnie feel the way they do, too.
One day, I'm gonna tell the owner about this woman, but from what I hear, it's being done ALL the time.
SO, one day, I might just tell off that woman........ONE day.
