Re: Just went to Urgent care...
Thanks for sharing. Good alternative IF you have to see a Dr.

As a side note OP, I've been looking through the obits recently by way of Michigan Live .. I look in the GR area. Last night I went to check it out and there's a Huge
LEGACY.COM superimposed over all the obituary information. Not sure if you have to subscribe now (I saw a login button). Anyway just thought it was strange.. are they trying to hide deaths the number of deaths from the casual observer?

Re: Just went to Urgent care...
Same here, was in hospital for 2 weeks. Was asked about symptoms when I arrived, no mention at any time after that, nobody even brought up my vax status. Emergency ward was not overwhelmed, in the time I was there nobody arrived with covid symptoms, but lots of drug overdoses, accident injuries and heart attacks the night I spent in ER, but no respiratory emergencies. I even asked if they have a special ward for those cases and was told no.

A nurse confided to me that they aren't really seeing covid cases, but neurology and cardiac are very busy, I asked if this is since the vaccinations started and he just winked at me.

Actually I am pretty sure he is a GLPer. What is he supposed to do? Quit when retirement is months away? Stop giving quality care to the people that need it to protest and put a target on himself and his coworkers? It's not the medical professionals on the front lines that are driving this shit, it's the administrators, career politicians and political appointees on health boards and hospitals.

Urgent Cares are a better alternative to some local hospital Emergency departments.

I've had good experiences with them. Unless you go to a Level One Trans Center you are not to spend hours in a waiting room and have a negative overall experience.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 56516721


AMEN. I won't go to an ER anymore unless I'm bleeding out.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80683997


Hubs went to his regular dr for routine check-up after an outpatient surgery a month ago.

Everyone there gave him shit about the mask he DOESN'T wear....he gave shit back.

Dr. comes out and says "BXXX, man, you gotta wear the thing in here. The hospital owns this building and they MAKE me do it. If we don't comply, they can pull my lease and kick me out."

Hubs complied. They get in the exam room and Dr. pulls his mask OFF and says, "MAN! I HATE THESE THINGS! But it's not my idea."

So now I give some folks a pass, KNOWING they're probably being pressured to do stuff like that.

I just went to a Satellite Hospital of Henry Ford HCS for an urgent care visit. I thought I had an ear infection, but turns out TMJ.

But that's not important, here was my experience:

No mention of Vax, at all. Not one peep.

No screening at the door except for "Hey bro, any symptoms?" No temp gun, nothing. Fair question, happy to answer.

Mask? Sure. Didn't expect otherwise.

The Dr. made no mention of anything Covid at all.

Was totally treated with respect and humanity at an otherwise dark time in our society.

Those water fountains reminds me
of when I was a kid in Baltimore.
They had separate EVERYTHING for the blacks.
They went to the back of the streetcar.
Montgomery Ward, I remember, on Monroe St
had a bathroom for the whites, and another for
the "coloreds".

We called them the colored people,
not blacks or that other word you can't say,
similar to the (n-word).

If somebody got mad at them, or about them,
there was a whole dictionary full of words
for them, though.

Yup. I lived through it too. Was weird when I was a kid to see that there were separate drinking fountains....as well as the barstools at the local drug store where "coloreds" couldn't sit and drink a milk shake....

Seeing that sign, "Vaxxed/unvaxxed" it almost seems like we're headed that way, doesn't it??

Re: Just went to Urgent care...
unless it's something big they just can't handle, urgent care is my provider of choice. something that's $50 there would literally be $5,000 at an ER
 Quoting: Jumping Jack Flash


Yes ER is expensive but when it's truly urgent to the point you might need to have life saving surgery that's the place you want to be since they have many doctors and surgeons ready to go at all times of the day. Expect a 10 thousand dollar medical bill just for walking in the door though =/

The cost of healthcare in the US is extremely bad. Many people will live their entire lives with chronic pain and sickness just to avoid the high costs of treatment.

If there is 1 thing I agree with the the left on it's that the US needs some form of universal care for citizens. At least to cover basic check-ups at a primary care doctor.

By doing this one thing many millions of people could be living a much healthier life.

If the left wasn't completely retarded about the way they approach this problem the US would have some system in place already. They want universal healthcare but they also want to attach it to LGBTQ rights, illegals, gibs, and all types of other things. Something that would be doable but they always go way overboard and turn it into something entirely not doable and would destroy the entire country.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73822952


We don't need "Universal FREE health care."

What we need is the Pharmaceutical companies all to NOT be in bed with Congress and/or doctors making all meds and treatments astronomically high to where even your insurance can't afford to cover it all. Not like that in other countries.

Re: Just went to Urgent care...
About 6weeks ago, took a friend to an Urgent Care affiliated with major hospital in SC.

We never wore a mask ...no one cared.
Though staff wore masks, many wore them loosely, under the nose.

The intake questionnaire asked about symptoms. But we were never asked about covid, testing or jabs.

You’d be surprised at how many medical staff and docs know that covid is BS.

Nice to hear your experience! Have had the same with routine visits in upstate NY no less.

As to the TMJ, oh that's a killer. Have had it for many, many years. Have you considered a night guard? If you do, have it made by a reputable dentist. I know the guards you can buy at the pharmacy or Amazon are cheaper, but they won't be as effective. Trust me on this. Also, exercises and massages help as well as warm compresses. What really works for me is being conscious of when I'm clenching. Once you learn to do this, you can practice relaxation - lips together, teeth apart. Sounds stupid but it works. Good luck to you. hf

WHAT? Most Urgent care facilities are tied to a major Hospital local system! They aren't independant! I just made the mistake of seeking out help at a C..S clinic! DO NOT GO. I WAS ABUSED AND TRAUMATIZED. I am now likely reported as Unjabbed. Now I have even MORE fear and paranoia about seeking out help.

All C...S clincs in TN are Tricare.
If you know a good facility name it please. Some of us are desperate to seek help from some who WON'T HARM US!!!.

Yea I mean something needs to be done to bring the cost of healthcare down.
It's almost like a plot by the lefty politicians. They want universal healthcare but they always end up lumping it into their other asinine agendas. So the right says hell no we can't go along with this plan, this is idiotic.
Then the left cries about how the right wants to kill your grandma.

Last year I was riding my ATV thru the woods and smacked my arm against a tree and dislocated it, visibly the whole arm was way way out of place. I freaked out and popped it back in on my own, went to the ER and had an x-ray done and was given percocets. My bill was 17 thousand dollars and the only thing that they really did was give me a brace an x-ray, and some pain killers.

Urgent care is pay at the door care. They act better as word of mouth can hurt them. They are used to seeing a ton of people who stay mainly outside of the current wicked medical system that only seeks to kill people with covid vaccines rather than doing the right things and treating them properly.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77852475


Yes,, I’ve found urgent care much more customer service oriented.

The temp taking is more performative than preventative and reasonable people are seeing this. Same with excessive hand sanitizing.

I had to take someone to urgent care twice in the last month. They took her temp but not mine and I was in the room also, found that odd but didn't bother me. Also, they just billed insurance so out the door both times, easy peasy.
