Adventures of the Poor, Little Boob

 

A little bit of a backstory. About the time of the pandemic, the female doctor I was seeing for my primary care physician, had broken her leg, had some health issues so she decided to retire. I didn't want a male doctor and it took me some time to find a female physician who was accepting new patient. I could have easily found a woman doctor if I was looking for a pediatrician. But I finally found one. She was booking appointments six months out! I made the appointment for January 29, 2024.

In October, I called to see her about a mole I had. I have had this mole for a long time. At one point, I had it burned off, but it came back. So, the color looked odd. As it turned out, it was just a mole.

  1. I read you about male doctors. I prefer female as well. And those waiting times. And the fears you carry hence for too long. Still haven´t taken care for an app.
