Today's Peeve Of The Day, Thursday, 13th October. (best, check, England)

[Jezer]

Good morning peevers.

Hmm- I've got a long standing appointment for a check up in hospital today.

I know these things are best done but some of us are put off by such places, so today's peeve is;

Having to visit the doc or dentist.

Oh Honey, don't get me started!

My oldest son is disabled. He had an appointment today with his doctor at 11:15. We were there on time, the doc came cruising his happy a** in at 12:05. This is common for him.

I was already in a bad mood from getting stung by a bee and having to use my last Epi-pen so guess who caught the brunt of it! It felt good to rip him a new one for wasting MY time. Had we been that late to an appointment we wouldn't have been seen but we probably would have been charged.

I'm looking for a new specialist.

Thanks Jeezer! Perfect timing on the peeve today!

I have a friend who hates going to Dr.'s and Dentists and he comes to me for treatments. I'm not equipped to perform heart surgery, but I pull teeth and do amputations for free! I even remove bowel obstructions! Ever hear the saying: Scared sh*tless!?????

Too bad you live so far away!!! Lol!

I avoid both like the plague!

How about the lack of ability to go see a doc or dentist?? Does this count??

[English Dave]

I hate going to see the doctor. It's well known in England men are reluctant to go,
which is bad, because sometimes men have a major problem by the time they do.
It's silly, because a problem caught early is easier to cure. The dentist, well, I go twice
a year for a checkup, but I don't like it, especially if you can hear the high pitched drill
going while you're sat in reception.

I don't hate going - one has to do what one has to do... but it can be soooo complicated getting an appointment!

Having to visit the doc or dentist.

I don't mind going to the dentist but going to the doctor just about makes me sick. I only go once a year maybe twice if I get really sick.

I don't really like the Dr. but still go. My hubby hasn't had a check up in 3 years, he hates it!
The dentist for a cleaning I love, my teeth feel so good when they are finished!!

I don't mind going...I mind the overbooking and the wait. Good peeve, Jezer.
