Patience needed for this job.

Today i went to the gynae with R4 and was made to wait for almost 4 hours before i get to see her for a miserly 10 mins.

I also dunno what went wrong, i overheard the stupid old foggies nurses telling some random patients that the gynae is held up for some minor surgery hence the delay.

I don't mind waiting. After all i am in the medical line, i also know sometimes things are beyond our control.

However, Old foggy only told why the doctor was late when people asked. And the way she said was like "brush you away kind ala i am very busy dun bother me with such trival matters".

Geez.

Whatever happened to customer service? And the appointment states 1000-1100hrs. I was there since 1015hrs(slighty late- heehee:P) and waited till way pass 2 before i get to see her.

And the fact is i never take any breakfast coz i thought can go for lunch at 11 or the most 12ish after the appointment.

Then i waited.

and waited.

Till i cannot take it anymore, i stopped the ATAS old foggy in her track and asked.

San-d: *hungry until can die* Excuse me, how many more person till my turn.
O.F.: Wait huh. *goes into room to check* Sandy wong right? 5 more person la. (like it is so matter of fact)
San-d: *in utter disbelief* 5 more??? That will take how long?
O.F.: I don't know.
San-d: Roughly?
O.F.: I really don't know.

Wah. The volcano in me reach boiling point liao. I grabbed my bag and told R4 lets go. Then we just have our lunch at the nearby delifrance.

If i am waiting alone, i probably will not be so agitated.

But R4 is with me. And His mouth is one of a kind.

Can you imagine stuck with him for 4 hours sitting in a clinic full of pregnant women, running toddlers and screaming babies.

R4 is like a Bb magnet. Some how kids running around like to touch his leg when they run pass. Or stare at him with they doe like eyes and smile. If not stand in front of him and play with whatever toy they can get from the kiddy corner.

R4 tries very hard to ignore them while poking fervertly on the DS. But i can see him looking at them with the corner of his eyes ala "the touch me one more time and you will get it " look

Whahahahahhahahaa.

Anyway, when we finally get to go see the doctor, she did the scan and peanut has grown! Wow! And has legs and hands and heartbeat too!

R4: Now is not peanut already, since grow until 4cm plus, it looks like a ....
San-d: What?
R4: Cockroach. *starting laughing*
San-d: Stupid.
R4: Wah like play game. From peanut morph to cockroach.

And the grand finale is .....

R4 when to complain to the Dr " Is it normal to wait so long????"

Wahahahhahahaha.

The Dr told him next time no need to come til about 20 weeks when it is time for the detailed scan.

I think she is scared of his funny questions. And he started complaining to the dr saying old foggy never do her job probably. Never inform us what is going on etcetc.

Old foggy was furious! She came storming to us at the cashier saying that she did inform us there are 5 patients ok. R4 then said that it is coz we asked her. She then mumbled is just that she really have no idea when the doctor will be available. R4 the said whatever la.

As for me, i cannot be bothered to talk to her even!

R4: Guess i made their Day. *sniggers* Heh heh heh.
