Ordinarily, the superior, readily accessed medical services in Fayette County, from 911 emergencies to specialist care, give us a warm, fuzzy, protected feeling.

You know, someone else is ready to take care of this, we don’t have to worry?

Well, Friday morning, my husband and I both felt ill. We were nearing the weekend, doctor’s offices were closing, perhaps it would improve by itself, if not we would see our doctors Monday.

On Monday we were worse, with severe bronchitis. And functioning doctors’ offices seemed to have vanished with house calls.

Don’t believe “Urgent Care Anytime” and “Immediate Care” advertising. This should be removed from outside such offices unless it is in fact true.

We finally found one facility open, obtained an antibiotic, and are on the mend, thanks.
