I have been a patient for about 20 years I've never used the on call physician but had to Saturday night when I Had a medical problem that I tried to resolve myself during the latter part of the night.. this went on an'd on,.
He said after I explained myself that he couldn't believe I "waited to call him now" which was midnight and he reminded me that he's "a person to " and he "has a life" he told me with great aggravation in his voice that he "just had surgery"!
Left a message with the answering service I then received a call from the on call physician which happened to be Dr. Caticha. He greeted me with "this Is taunton medical emergency line".. so right away i felt he had this attitude like he felt like my problem was not an emergency.
I was treated with disrespect I cannot believe this is my 1st and only time I have used the on call physician and was made to feel really bad for doing so. I am 50 years-old I am not one to call the doctor for every little thing,... it was something I couldn't help as I was I suffering. I too didn't want to run out to a 24 hour pharmacy 10 MI away to get my prescription but it was something I had to do to feel better.
..... In my opinion,..this was not my fault that he had signed up for this life style and chose to become a doctor. And if he just had surgery why out of all the colleagues that he has in his practice did he not get someone to take over his "on call"duties?
kept getting worse and worse that I couldn't take anymore and needed some help ..i was going to go to the ER but when i googled my symptoms found out that it could-be easily treated with a prescription so I then called the on call physician .
