Annual Doctors Visits

Today, hopefully, we complete our annual doctors visits. Yesterday I visited the dermatologist and his trainee, and he found some more spots to freeze off and said to return in a year. This did not take too long and seemed like a good visit to me. HW2 had been to see one of her doctors on Monday and with a bit of followup on Tuesday got the same remark, "Return in a year!" At this point in our lives, we like to hear that remark, rather than, "Come back in two days and have this or that procedure done." So today it is our annual physicals, and this should finish the poking and prodding. This doctor takes us both in together, and that's a first, but, then why not. If it goes as usual, he gives the same prescriptions, which we send to our pill provider, and we are good for another year barring accidents of course.

We like these men and the way that they take care of us, and that is the reason we return to Omaha each year for more poking and prodding. Health care here is good, and you do not have to wait months to see your doctor.

You don't have to wait a month for an appointment, but you have to plan a road trip!
