[Nfbc-info] Procedure

Mon Sep 21 04:11:18 UTC 2015

I think it all depends on the facility. One day my dad drove himself home after a procedure  and they were perfectly fine with that. What doesn't make sense here is that you're willing to pay for your neighbor to put her kids in a daycare, but you're not willing to pay for a taxi? I think that a taxi would be cheaper, or is the medical center against that too?

That would be the best work around. I would hate to have Sarah tell the center that we will sue them if they don't do the procedure. The crazy thing abou about this is that 2 weks agao, when they asked me about transportation, someone else there told me that pera transit would be fine. Then some other person (a mamager) said that pera transit wasn't acceptable. They told me they want a name & number of someone before they will even consider the procedure.  I still think this is a bunch of hogwash. I explained to them that pera transit drops me off @ my door & I would be safe with them. It seems to me that these surgery centers are afraid of their own shadow.
