UT MEDICAL INSTITUTE IS ONE WORD: RATCHET!!!

Not in a good way like Hurricane Chris says ratchet in a bad way like bootleg DVDs. Let me tell y0u why:

Last Monday i was playing ball and tore my ACL which is a pretty bad injury requiring surgery because if you let it go too long then you can have permanent damage. So when i go in to get my MRI results read the doc is like yea we need surgery and telling me about it and describing stuff, everything is on the up and up right now so im like cool. Im nervous has hell because i've never had surgery before nor have i never been put under before. So im thinking of all the bad stuff that could happen and the thing is the doc scheduled this appointment last week on Wed i believe so i been wating over a week for this surgery. So finally last night i put myself in the mind frame of ima be strong and the Lord's gonna take care of everything with this surgery. The surgery is scheduled for 1:00 for prep and 2:30 for the actual surgery today. I had my ride set up and everything..i had already told people about it and to pray for me..things were in place.....



But @ exactly 10:50am i get a phone call from UT MED saying "I have to reschedule cus i made a mistake and accidentally took on sum emergency surgerys today. I could still get u in but i don't know what time i would get to it, can i reschedule you for monday @7:10am".,........



People this is where i almost lost it....

1. How the hell do accidentally take on sum emergency surgery when your not even an emergency surgeon, your an orthopedic surgeon.

2. How are you just gonna fit me in today when i have SURGERY. Not a check up not a physical, a real deal surgery.

3. Then you give me the earliest surgery time known to man. Because the surgery may be @7:10 yet ima have to be there @like 5:30 for prep. Which also means i have to wake up someone else again to take me becuz i can't drive to my surgery.

4.SURGERY!! SURGERY!! HOW DO YOU RESCHEDULE SURGERY?????!!!!!!



This isn't the first time UT Med has pissed me off.....



Last year me and my line brothers were practicing for our probate and i accidentally jumped up to high and busted my head open on a concrete slab above us....i know just think abowt that for a sec............so anyway like this wasn't no small cut or nothing this was a real deal contusion on the head like at the top where the brain at. Blood is everywhere so i get rushed to the hospital and they get me in a room....now im thinking ok i got head trauma this should take like 5-10 min for them to come in and work on me....wrong!!!!....it took 3 HOURS for them just to come in and say "hmmm thats a big contusion on ur head ur gonna need staples" WELL THANK YOU OL' WISE ONE I COULDN'T FIGURE THAT OUT MYSELF!!! the entire time im asking the nurse can i get sum asprin or sumthing and she like "no cuz u don't want to take anything yet until the doctor comes and checks" Realize people that my head is still bleeding i am holding the blood back blood with a t shirt they didn't even give me a towel or anything!!! So then the nurses come in and there as dense as a doorknob and they are the ones in charge of shaving the hair around my open wound...

SIDENOTE: If you have ever had to shave anything in ur life, u know that u have to have shaving cream or its gonna hurt and aggravate the skin. Imagine that ur hair is abowt half a inch high u have a open wound with blood coming owt, no shavin cream, and two slow azz nurses who are more scared of shaving ur head than u are?

Back to the story...
So this two testtube babies are trading the razor back and forth talking bout "u do it..no u do it" not realizing that i am a human sitting here that feels everytime u scrap that dam razor across my open contusion.
So after tweedle dee and tweedle dumb get through the doc comes in....WITH A F**KING ATTITUDE like i just messed up his day because i came to a hospital for help...excuse me then...He doesn't even prep he is like "i gotta use staples...its gonna hurt alot....don't move" If i wasn't abowt to pass owt from all the pain i would have said somethin but i was jus to busy trying not to blackowt from somebody STAPLING MY HEAD WITH NO TYPE OF ANAESTHESIA!!!!!!

So in conclusion....UT MED IS RATCHET..unfortunately i still have to go back on Monday and deal with these people again...Pray for me seriously I don't like doctors or doctors offices and im terrified abowt surgery regardless if it is knee surgery or not....Leave comments abowt ur hospital horror stories...

Mr.Melvin is OWT of the office.............
