Health Centers my A** !!
Tuesday, April 25, 2006



Today i decided (mistakenly) to take my son to one of the health centers as he has a rash on his face and body.. so i thought.. okk since they are open from 7:30 and i need to be at work by 9:30 and the private clinics open later.. i'll take him there for a check up... WRONG MOVE..

i arrived there just before 8:30 found myself the last inline behind 15 other women.. with one doctor on duty.. i still thought ,, ok i'll wait no prob.. because usually the pediatritian is very good ( another thing ,, all the good doctors are not Omani !! what a shame).. by the time it was my turn it was 10:30 and the doctor decided to take a break !! so i had to wait another half an hour ,, the doctor finally came back.. and she was one lazy omani lady (not even the doctor i wanted to see).. sooo busy typing in her computer.. so i am explaining to her that my son has this weird rash and that he didn't eat anything different .. all she does is go "aha.. ok.. aha.. hold on a sec" and continues typing in her computer.. then tells me ,, "ok go take the medicine "

i give her this totally blank look.. because i think maybe i didn't hear her well.. i ask her again and she says " go take the medicine" i say "what medicine??" and she then looks all bothered and explains to me the medicine she wants me to give my son.. one cream and one drop.. i say "aren't u even going to examine him?? " she's like "no need" WTF!!!! (excuse me)...

i just got so disgusted and left.. i am going to a private clinic tonight.. serves me right for being so stupid and going there in the first place..

btw i arrived at work at 11:30 and was on the phone the whole time trying to get some deals done because i was late.

Hey girl...
I'm sorry to hear that... but not surprised... as u know i worked here 4 a year and resigned... couldn't tolerate the mess & the unprofessional attitude... especially after seeing my patient die infront of me because the senior gave him a medication he's allergic 2... it even said that in RED on his file... 7asbi allah 3alaihom...
anyway... i hope yr adorable son is much better now...
by the way when can i c u?... i'm leaving Monday early morning inshalla...
