okay so the dermatologist yesterday - actually the nurse practitioner - that i saw does not perform biopsies IN the office... so they referred me to a surgeon and i made an appointment for that on sept 7 - BUT - the surgeon wasn't going to do a biopsy that day - just was going to evaluate me.
eh.
anyway, last week when i made my appointment with the dermatologist i saw yesterday, i also made appointments with a few other dermatologists - i went to the one yesterday because it was the quickest appointment i could get. but i also made an appointment for september 14th with a dermatologist i went to about 15 years ago who is good. and i kept that appointment.
and he does biopsies in the office rather than shuffling me out to a surgeon.
so i will wait - hell, i'd have to wait till around then anyway - so i'm cancelling the follow-up appt at the derm-chick i saw yesterday (for sept 12) and cancelling the surgeon (sept 7) and just going to the tried and tested dermatologist that i know many others who go to him.
hey - nothing better than a second opinion.
and i haven't named the freckles in question - don't want to get too attached.
