“Great listener, a more refined and controlled environment, not so quick to write prescriptions but find out if one is needed first then provided multiple options and dialogued with my wife at home before making recommendation! Loved it and look forward to a good treatment plan going forward. Excellent in every way.”

I told them I was borderline and they didn’t want to listen and so I did what a borderline had to do be heard even though I have no idea if I was heard anyways; Seek and Destroy. Maybe they just didn’t like me. It’s okay I pushed away but with an Oscar. The audience was silent. I envision them saying encore and others in tears or maybe both. But I feel just as destroyed. And more or less I think I got my point across. Terrible PA and psychiatrist. But it’s okay, Again, I’m Borderline. So I was worse. And I did it all sane. And it felt good. You know, rage with a smile. No one got hurt. Numb going in Numb going out. And for them, thoughts. More thoughts. I mean the office is clean and the front staff is alright; They have confidence when they collect your Co-pay I’ll tell you that. No card on file? We can change that.
