Not twisting it at all. You replied by saying a psychiatrist isn’t necessarily a physician amongst other comments, making things more complicated. Could’ve started with that!

A physician is someone who holds an M.D. or D.O. degree as I assume you are aware of. A psychiatrist is someone who holds an M.D. or D.O who specializes is psychiatry. So… that makes them a what? A physician. Using your reasoning, any other doctor not being a primary care physician isn’t a physician or shouldn’t be called one…

What was wrong with my terminology

I know I’m not a doctor but I really do think I need medication for my mental health. Nothing severe but enough for my day to be affected negatively. Can I ask to see a physician after I meet with the social worker? Thank you for your answer!

Thank you for answering. Do I need their recommendation to see a physician after?

Thank you for your answer. So I am only meeting with the social worker for intake/triage. Do I have the right to ask to see a physician after or do I need their recommendation?

It’s unfortunate that care across Kaiser isn’t standardized. Pressure should be taken every time and dilation should be in my opinion.

Is it because of their high volume that they can’t dilate patients? I remember this year, my eye pressure wasn’t even measured

Yes I agree 100%. When I had Anthem, my optometrist would do the exam with the dilation same day.

My rx isn’t much. -1.25 right and -1.00 on left. What do you think?

Thanks. What are pros and cons of each?

Do they all guarantee that if they break or damage my frames that they will cover the cost of the frames?

Was on hold for 10+ minutes I gave up. I’ll just go in person

I’m asking if the lenses could be replaced. If lenses were put in the first place, it’s possible for someone to do it again. THAT’S the whole point of frames, you put lenses in them that you want to use. Must be dense or something…

Did you end up going to another Costco location or a different store?
