Our Doctors have all been transferred to Jackson. This is the site of the Medical School, so there is a large contingent of specialists and sub specialists right here in Jackson. Both Ken and I said a fond farewell to our Bethesda Physicians, who have cared for us so competently, and we have gotten to know a whole bunch of new Doctors, all of whom look about 16.
As we are not in Jackson all year, during the times that we do live here, we spend our time visiting doctor's offices. Ken and I are not good at waiting so we try to get the first appointment of the day, but then we are into morning traffic. This morning my eye appointment was at 8:30, right at the peak of traffic. We have decided to forget the early appointments and just take a book. In June, 2014, my next appointment with the good eye doctor is set for 10:00. Everything is relative of course. The traffic is never terrible in Jackson, but you become accustomed to the lack of congestion.
The Eye Doctor, who looks 16, is excellent. He is happy to see me every six months although people with glaucoma should be seen every four months. He realizes that it is silly for me to see other doctors in other places so he accepts me coming every six months. He is no match for my background in sales. My check up with him today went well. I see 20/20 without glasses and my pressures are 12 in each eyes. My diligence with the five drops a day is working. We are pleased with our Mississippi physicians.
