Patient
Sent my father for a check up since he was having issues. They ran a EKG which showed something was wrong with his heart. (Already previously had a heart valve replacement) They decided no big deal its your meds we will adjust them and set up a echo for 2 months out. After a few weeks he called back an said he couldn't wait that long for the echo. They moved it up for the following week (on a Thursday) . Tuesday, two days before his appointment he was rushed to an ER by ambulance and is currently in ICU fighting for his life because his life his Valve is infected and needs replaced again!. Could have all been taken care of weeks ago with possible antibiotics when the EKG showed something was wrong!
