stuff like that happens. It happened to me, no food since midnight, got there at 1 PM, was told things were backed up, I'd be in by 3 PM. About 2:50 they came out and said that I was last in line, six ahead of me, did I want to reschedule? Yes, I said.....who wants to be the last patient of what was going to be a long day in surgery ? As I found out later the surgeon had a flat tire to add to his problems that day. This all happened in Tampa. I was happy they gave me the choice. They scheduled me for 7 AM thefollowing week.
