18 steps to do or damn it, avoid visiting dentists in USA


Week have started with unfortunate football game for San FRancisco 49ers..., Superbowl with Ravens

Unfortunate, because I'm living in SF and 9ers did all they could.... but it is what it is...


Now the most interesting part of week... new experience of mine

You can't imagine, what does it mean to visit (better to say to try visit...) dentist in USA... damn it....

1. Find your insurance
2. Call them
3. Wait 200 mins to be answered (lucky you if they don't have voice mail with stupid commands to follow)
4. Answer to 47 questions including your zip code... what a hell?
5. Call to doctor and make an appointment... (lucky you if they have window next two days)
6. Fill the form with 1001 questions... i swear it's freakin small fonts to fit 100 checkboxes (horrible User Experience :) adding small piece of sarcasm )
7. Meet dentist....
8. Learn Cantonese or Mandarin (those who are living in SF will undersand me :) )
9. Get another appointment and get your prescription
10. Find near located Walgreens
11. Stand on a line with hundred idiots like you...
12. Improve your russian :))))
13. Show your all possible documents to buy simple antibiotics... (oh... can't understrand why it's so complicated for antibiotics...)
14. Next Week go to dentist (make sure you don't late of your appointment, otherwise you screwed)
15. Sit on chair and wait when dentist will appear
16. Impress your dentist with your Cantonese :))))
17. Get your bill
18. Deep sigh and realize that you are bankrupt :)))

Seriously, it's cheaper to book a ticket, back to Armenia, fix the issues, stay there a week, invite all your friends to party where all drinks on you take a limo back to airport,  give last 10 bucks to coke and all these costs of rooting canal of 3 teeth and remove nerves...

Oh Maaaaan....

P.S. Speaking about User Experience... Need awesome design? www.macadamian.com
