@SuzyQuzey I’m going to, and the woman I spoke to said she’d rule in my favor if I did, in the name of “patient satisfaction,” but like the fuck? I can’t ask the doctor a question?
Hey heads up, if you’re a woman and go to @UPMC for your annual exam, you—like me— will get charged extra for asking the doctor questions they deem “above and beyond” the scope of a normal exam.
So yeah, it cost me $85 to respond to my doctor’s prompt of “Do you have any questions?” Excellent, good work, thanks for the comprehensive healthcare.
For me, this was asking the GYNECOLOGIST about hormone fluctuations, a five minute convo which yielded advice that was mid at best and definitely nothing I hadn’t already found via a rudimentary Google search.
