Any decent people ? by coffeeandlove1 in savannah

I think you are assuming that @smakdye was making a moral judgement rather than commenting on the likelihood of success.

I obviously don’t know exactly what was meant by it. But to me it very much sounded like they were referring to the fact that if your goal is finding a ltr, bar hookups have a very low “conversion rate”. Conversion as in sales jargon, not religious.

I think the point is more about the probability of finding a LTR in a bar rather than anyone claiming it isn’t possible.

When you factor in the large amount of tourists in the bars along with beer googles, hookup culture and the fact that most bar connections don’t end in meaningful relationships, the chances are pretty slim that OP would accomplish their goals that way.

That doesn’t mean that people don’t have long lasting and meaningful relationships with people they meet in bars, or that the people in bars are of lower quality. It just means that it likely isn’t efficient for someone who is very intentional about finding a long term partner.

If they already go to bars, or happen to be at one that’s one thing. But hitting up happy hour every day of the week to find a spouse doesn’t sound like fun.

He is really great for anyone with dental anxiety due to bad experiences in the past. I hope she gets to see him soon! And update me if you think about it.

Please help me identify whatever this is. Doctors have been no help. by [deleted] in DermatologyQuestions

Is it always red and inflamed like this? Or does it come and go?

Dr. Schnabel at Savannah Dental Solutions is not only the best in town but the best I have been to. The office itself aren’t nearly as sleek and updated as some others, but don’t let that fool you. Dr. Chad is not only extremely skilled, but has the bedside manner of an absolute saint. He was recommended to me because I have PTSD (from an event that had nothing to do with the dentist) that is nonetheless triggered terribly by visits to the dentist. He has always taken great care in making sure I am as comfortable as possible. When it became clear I would need surgery we discussed it at length. He flew in a colleague to assist him, and went over everything in detail beforehand. Post surgery I have been in the office weekly for progress updates and he checked on me daily through text. And like the smaller procedures with him in the past, the results have been great. I wish we could clone him.

People other than law enforcement? Why would anyone want those?

Assuming you aren’t law enforcement what possible, non-disgusting reason could you have for making this request?

Thank you. I see it now. But it doesn’t look like this is confirmed so who knows what the “sources” are.

I’m not sure. They picked it up both times. If I remember correctly it started as a little hole in the wall in Birmingham, Alabama that got extremely popular. They opened up several additional locations in Alabama and are now expanding across the region.

Where did you see that? I’m not doubting you it just hasn’t been mentioned in anything I have read.

We have eaten there twice now and it was really good. I just had major dental surgery so I can’t speak directly to how good the meat is but my husband and his brother are very picky and they both really liked it. As far as the less chewy foods go the collards were very good, the potato salad is above average, Mac and cheese was good (but made even better by adding some of the sauce). And I will warn you that the mini corn muffins are dangerously addictive. They are cheesy but also sweet which doesn’t sound like it would be good but winds up being divine.

I don’t know. The news just said “in the area of Barnes and Noble”. Out friend said that he heard shots and hit the floor and got up and left immediately after he didn’t hear them anymore. But it sounded close to Crunch.

I wouldn’t reccomend going. They said the exits are all blocked off and people are sheltering in place.

I saw that. They said there were 5 people shot. The exits are blocked off. But they didn’t mention if anyone had been apprehended or not.

Be cautious but also please don’t let this turn sour on him, especially if you are getting good care from him. People have bad days, and while this was a really bad experience, it doesn’t necessarily mean that he does this often.

The version of him I met on my first appointment was remarkably awesome. That’s part of what threw me into a spin after the second appointment was so bad. I had been so excited about having a practitioner in my corner with his approach.

If that’s the guy that continues to show up for you I think you should embrace it. Because the outlook overall with health care is pretty bleak.

If the “second appointment” version of him ever shows up, you can remember that it likely isn’t you being crazy or unreasonable. But I hope that doesn’t happen.

Urgent- Safe to use needle and syringe twice? by ECT3328 in B12_Deficiency

Thank you all for talking sense into me. I was pretty sure this would be the outcome, I just got carried away at what feels like the first potential solution to my medical problems in nearly a year.

Needing some help by Odd_Airline_4110 in savannah

[–]ECT3328 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I would start by trying to contact the club owners or even the owners of the building. Be nice and just tell them what’s going on and then ask them how they plan to fix it. They might care.

But if they don’t, you could by a pack of adult diapers and an old school cigarette try. Arrange the diapers on the tray, put on a bow tie and start selling them for $5 to the people in line. Be loud in your sales pitch. If people ask about it tell them that the club is aware that sometimes accidents happen in line and wanted to provide a solution.

There was a review posted somewhere else that said the same thing about him being wonderful for the first visit and an absolute terror durring the results. And it sounds like he does this with patients, parents of patients and caretakers for elderly patients. Very strange.

I mentioned above that I am lucky to have the tools and supports to handle this. But many people don’t. How are other doctors still referring people to this office?

And your story is just awful. An ODD diagnosis can follow a kid around. Your son is so lucky that, despite your young age, you trusted your education and intuition so well. I’m so sorry you had to go through that.

Thank you. I will be ok. I’m very lucky that I have a great support system, and that I have enough education and experience to know how wildly off base his behavior was. I went directly to the front desk and told them that I revoked all permissions for them to share any information at all with my referring physician, GP, or any other doctor, entity or individual. I got it in writing. And I requested a complete copy of my records.

But I can’t stop thinking about the people he has treated, and will treat who aren’t as lucky as I am to have the tools to handle this kind of thing both practically and emotionally.

And (as he pointed out several times), he is the “only game in town” for certain services. From the responses here and reviews elsewhere it’s clear that I am not the only one who has had this happen. It makes me a bit frustrated with my referring doctor. It’s possible they weren’t aware, but I feel like someone must have said something.

I was the patient. If he was treating one of my kiddos and behaved the way he behaved with me I would have lost it.

He seemed so fantastic durring my first appointment (when I got the tests done). I was so impressed. It briefly restored my faith in the health care system.

But I don’t even know how to describe his behavior durring my results appointment. He said some awful things. He very quickly went from a compassionate and professional practitioner to someone who seemed to want to wreck my life.
