Want to know some bs? My cardiologist scheduled me for an appointment on Christmas eve and now im arguing with the staff.

When the appointment was made I double checked and asked if they were for sure open that day. I was told yes. When I showed up lights off,doors locked nobody else in the parking lot. I called and called no answer and left a voicemail. What happens to me? I get a no show put onto my online chart when I did show.

I called today and told them and I was told they were closed. I asked why I was told differently and why did nobody reach out and catch the mistake before the holiday. I said I wasn't making another appointment and I wasn't paying any no show fee either. I wanted my test results over the phone because I was not wanting to make a new appointment.

I sent over a screenshot of the notice in my online chart as proof.

This isn't the first time I've had to fight with the staff. A few years ago when I had my heart attack and was out on medical leave I had to fight them on filling out paperwork because it was messing with my livelihood. Never mess with someone's money and job.

I hate having to get mean but I'm not taking the fall here.

@BeastK You're quite right standing up for yourself. When we thought my husband's skin cancer came back the doctor wouldn't even give him an appointment until I bullied the receptionist into giving me the email address to send photos to. Then the doctor told me I shouldn't have done that so she got a curt email! He got an appointment that week and is now being treated 👍. You do what you have to do. 💪

@BeastK You are not the bad guy in this. You were given an appointment on that day, you went to it and seen that they were not there. I would have been very upset myself about that. Maybe you should report those people for doing you like that.
