So my wife has been having a pain in her abdomen. Even showing possible signs of gallbladder issues. Her doctor scheduled her for a colonoscopy with her gastro doctor. Colonoscopy comes out fine yet he says, "The pain she is having and location of it is most common for gall bladder. We are going to schedule her for an ultrasound. Well they cannot get her in until August at one place so they schedule her 3 weeks out to another place.
1) Is there that many people getting that many ultrasounds and not that many places to get one done? I highly doubt this is the case
2) If you know that this is typical of gall bladder and you need the ultrasound then why the crap didn't you do that to cut the time frame down so someone doesn't have to go through the colonoscopy preparation and procedure and can get this fixed if surgery is needed and to lessen the time having to deal with it?
I honestly believe that doctors today only see $$$ and how they can get it from procedures not needed and could care less about their patients or others needs other than their own. Rant over
