Feb 2016

When I was first diagnosed with heart failure, I was sent to a specialist who was in a building with a group of other cardiologist.
The large waiting room had a large TV blaring FOX news and one of the smaller waiting rooms had a smaller TV blaring FOX news too but it had a note to not change the channel.

That really pissed me off. Another specialist ask how I was being treated at the facility and I told him I was just getting diuretics and potassium.

He got me into the University of Texas Southwestern Hospital and Clinic in Dallas and I have been with them since mid 2007. Although parts of the Dallas area are very conservative, the TV's are customer choice but in going there 14 times, I have never seen a conservative program.

It cost me a little more for a airplane ticket on Southwest and it lands about 10 blocks from the clinic. I get excellent service there. Screw the other one which is a cotton subsidy conservative welfare hating area..
