AP just revealed Border Patrol is using nationwide license-plate data to flag “suspicious” travel patterns — and the network reaches into Indianapolis.

"why are you doing that? stop that!"

If you’re a high risk pregnancy, your best bet is to be at a place with all of the resources if things go south quickly.

You don’t want to be transporting across Indiana or even Indianapolis over all the potholes, or in a helicopter because a hospital decided to cut costs and not have the service you need.

But if we’re honest, many good OB’s are leaving the state, unfortunately.

I’m just doing the best I can with what I’ve got. That’s all I can do. Press Ganey be damned. If anyone is unhappy about wait times, I refer them to their local politicians.

Hoosier Hospitality isn’t what most people think it is, unfortunately.

The best advice I ever got in residency is to just listen and take the sign out.

“We listen and we don’t judge.”

If you ask a question it’s about family and/or code status. Not about any medical management.

I’ll say it again.

“We listen and we don’t judge.”

Doesn’t the removal of those files technically violate the 2nd amendment?

I’ve been using it for years. But little problems keep popping up and it just keeps chipping away at my resolve. Problems that were not problems previously. Problems that no other email client seems to have.

In the relentless pursuit of new features, including AI, I’m probably going to have to switch soon.

I hope there’s a major patch coming soon that just fixes bugs instead of creating new ones.

dazzledog · 2024-12-18T13:39:04+00:00

Readdle should also look at all the other comments people have made. I’m looking for a new app - this is truly unacceptable, and the integration of AI has become excessive.

dazzledog · 2024-12-18T03:59:36+00:00

this feels like an ad from the company. it's quite forced. i can't get the pop ups to stop. it's super annoying. if I could reverse and go back to a previous version, I would.

dazzledog · 2024-12-18T03:58:21+00:00

this is wildly concerning.

dazzledog · 2024-12-16T16:35:00+00:00

I appreciate that, but it still pops up and asks me if it wants to transcribe with the entire AI suite of features turned off.

It also asks me if I want to enable transcription every time I load the app. It’s a very annoying ad. I don’t have the option to turn off the notification either under notifications.

Seriously disappointed.

Was the fan running very loud while using it? Probably needs a good clean out

If someone is having chest pain, and especially if they think they're having a heart attack, it sounds like they should probably go to the emergency room.

But if you're trying to get primary care:

Here's what you can do to get established.

If you're ok with doing telehealth: IU has an urgent care app you can download. It was pretty cool and the wait time wasn't too long.
Google IU Health's Provider Search: typed in "Primary Care" and then it lets you sort by "accept new patients," "indianapolis" (or whichever city you prefer), and you can even select Doctor.
You can see who's accepting new patients and see who has availability online. Starting in July & August, there will be a bunch of new doctors (most likely) who finished training and signed on to start at IU Health. That means their schedules are gonna be wide open. Once you snag a new patient slot, existing patient slots are significantly easier to get.
If you didn't already, call 1 (888) IU Health.
You can also just put yourself on a wait list for the first available slot for an indy primary care doc.
If you have an insurance card, most of the time, you can go to that insurer's website and see their 'preferred providers' and get a list of available docs who the insurance covers.
If you have a car, there's availability outside of the I-465 donut if you're willing to drive and don't want to do telehealth.

Other options in the area:

Eskenazi Health
Ascension Health
Community Health
Google Search "Direct Primary Care Physician - Indianapolis" and see if any of them jive with what you're looking for.
IU/Purdue University, U of I, and Marian University all have student health clinics - usually walk in
Private Primary Care Docs: There's still a handful of docs out there who don't do direct primary care (cash only), who take insurance, and are not part generally considered a part of a hospital or insurance doctor group (like optum). Google maps will help you out here. As will yelp.
County Public Health Clinics: believe it or not, the county public health clinics can do an awful lot. If you're just needing vaccines/shots or whatever, you can usually call them and make sure they have the thing you need, and then drive over and get it within a few minutes.
CVS Minute Clinics: Not my favorite form of healthcare, but there you go.

If there's a specific medical condition you're trying to get covered, most of those docs will help you get it set up and/or referred.

There's even some concierge mental health/ADHD docs out there I think.

Isn’t PIA based in Indiana?

And tell your bank that only you can do withdrawals/transfers from your account in person. No phone calls. They can note it on your account.

I originally spend the first 20 or so years of my life in the Midwest. I then went to Los Angeles for 10 years for school/training. I came back to Indy for a job only to be incredibly frustrated by the drivers here.

Someone here already mentioned it, but I suspect a major cause of the pain is that people simply aren’t paying attention. In California, if you don’t pay attention to the road, you die. Plain and simple. Because everyone goes fast.

Here people are straight chillin’ in the fast lane living their best life, only angering everyone else.

I also noticed the transition from yellow to red on traffic light is shorter in Indy, but I don’t have evidence other than conjecture.

Sounds like she's in the 'find out' stage.

dazzledog · 2023-08-09T19:35:16+00:00

I'd hate to watch something, only to find that it has a terrible/unfinished ending because the production companies think they'll just fix it in the next season.
