If you cannot tell, that was SARCASM.
Well, I was wondering when, if, and ever hear from Dr. Mendelson again.
Just got in the mail today, you’d think they would give ample time for notice. But next week I have a mandatory appointment to see her at 2pm. Now the last time I saw her she was in Orange, but now I have to go all the way to Torrance. You would think they’d try to make things easy, so I don’t have to sit in a car for so damn long. Way back when I had missed the first appointment they made for me, and they canceled my Mental case, even though I had called in the day of to tell them I physical could not drive to Orange from Huntington Beach at 9am, going through the 22 freeway Orange Crush area. It was hard to sit then, its still hard to sit now.
This here along is another good example as to why the Workers Compensation System is failing, they like to spend too much money. Plain and simple. How much did it cost them last time they sent me to a Doctor, for my transportation alone? $400 taxi ride, from Oceanside to Bueana Park. That was about half as long of a trip as this next one is going to be.
Here is the stats from Yahoo!Maps.
Starting from: 1 Home - AV Court 4251 Alta Vista Ct, Oceanside, CA 92057
Arriving at: 2 24520 Hawthorne Blvd, Torrance, CA 90505-6800
Distance: 82.8 miles
Approximate Travel Time: 1 hour 40 mins
So next Weds, they are going to be spending roughly $1,000 dollars just to have me evaluated by a Psychiatrist. Whose bill to them will undoubtedly be less expensive than the taxi ride.
The System is failing, and I’m paying for it with my pain and suffering.
