Call Your Doctor to Manage “Pandemic Stomach”
According to an article in the New York Times, current events are turning up the heat when it comes to heartburn. More Americans are using prescription and over-the-counter heartburn medicine to manage stress and reflux, resulting in nationwide shortages of acid reducers.
After I got passed the front desk the people could not have been any nicer. The older lady at the front desk was very rude. When I got there I called and she said give me 5 minutes because I have to put labels on something. I waited. When I got there she said well it hasn’t been 5 minutes. She yelled for another girl to come help her. When the other girl came to her she said to her, I told her to wait 5 minutes but she didn’t do it. She said that twice to her. I was speechless as to how she was talking about me in front of me! She was very unprofessional! I mentioned it to the nurse who came out to get me. She apologized fir how she acted. I told her it wasn’t her fault. All the nurses and everyone after was was wonderful. I had to wait a bit because Dr Lee-Young had to go to the hospital. I told them I understood. They kept coming in the room to check on me to see if I was ok. They could not have been nicer. Dr Lee-Young was very nice also. Could not have had better care. I would not have someone working at the front desk acting the way that lady did. She was very rude. I have never had someone like that speak the way she did to me in a place like that.
