Thanks OWC,
I am incredibly disappointed....very hurt, and you're right....that's what it is....there's no consistency - makes me feel like I don't matter. I hate so much that I ever got into this...I never imagined I'd ever feel so bad about a stupid canceled appt.! I never imagined feeling so dependent on a relationship....I hate it! Why did I ever get myself into this? It wouldn't matter to me if my dentist or gp canceled on me, why does it hurt so much that he cancelled on me?
I guess I shouldn't be so hard on him, I know things come up. He's a nice guy, but now every time I have an appt. I wonder if he's going to cancel. No, he's never given me advanced notice.....always had someone call the same day to cancel. I can understand when his father died...and the appts that were connected to that, but not when he overbooked. If I cancelled the same day....I'd have to pay.
I'm also really hurt because he couldn't even bother to call me back. I talked to his asst., and she said she'd have him call me, but I guess it's his policy not to call. I asked once before for him to call, and he didn't.....I know he's busy, and if he called every patient who asked, he'd spend all of his free time calling people....but he cancelled on me....not just once but 7 times!
Thanks for your email OWC. Feels good to be validated, and have some reality checking.
