I've been stressing over getting the blood work done that I need to have before my cathetarization. I couldn't figure out if the orders had been placed and where I needed to go. Mostly I only got ahold of automated answering machines. I hate those things.
Firday morning I finally found the orders on my patient portal. I made the last minute decision to leave early and get it done. The place I needed to go was close to work. I got there early and walked in. There was no one there. Not a check in window or anything
They actually had check in kiosks instead. I signed in and just sat down when they called me back. I was in and out in no time but now I had almost an hour before I needed to be at work. McDonalds for breakfast it is.

Good grief, entirely automatic registration? We haven't encountered that yet, but I guess we will.
Rick has that at Kaiser. Pretty soon we won't even need people at all.
The automated answering machines are so annoying. A check-in kiosk seems very impersonal?!
Ann I am amazed at how everything is becoming automated...the next thing will be a robot taking your blood - lol - Hugs!
I'm glad you got it done. Good for you and no waiting either. That lessens the stress.
Have a fabulous day and rest of the week. Big hug to you and lots of scritches to Gibbs. ♥
