30 Something

I got a letter in the mail yesterday from my doctor's office. It was informing me that my current doc, Dr. Dana, has completed her residency and will no longer be my doc after July 1. She's been my doctor for about 3 years and I'm really sad. I feel like she's breaking up with me and she didn't have the decency to call me. I wanted to call her yesterday to tell her that I didn't want her to leave, that I couldn't live without her, that I needed her and that she should take me with her. The letter also informed me of the new doc that has been assigned to me, Dr. Mohammed Sodaminines or something like that. When it comes to doctors I'm a little prejudice. I don't like a foreign doctor that I can't understand. It's very probable that if I'm in the doc's office I'm not having a good day so having to try to understand what someone is telling me adds to my anxiety. Also I'm biased against male docs. I need to be comfortable enough to tell my doc everything and I can't do that with a male doc. I'm a little biased against old docs also, but not much. I like someone who is younger than 48, but older than 35. I find that I feel childlike with docs who are much older. That makes me really self-conscience. I'm not sure what I should do. I want to talk to Dr. Dana before she leaves and I'm considering making an appt with her just to let her know that I need her. I'm not sure if she's from this area because she was still in school, but I want to know where she will be going so that I could arrange to go if it's in the area. I think I'm going to be depressed. I'll break out the movies and ice cream later.
