“I went there to get ear impressions done so I could get custom musicians' in-ear monitors made. They weren't willing to work with the in-ear monitor company, to get the impressions done, which was the whole point of going there. So what I ended up doing, so it wouldn't be a waste of time, was I got some molded musician ear plugs. So I still haven't gotten my in-ear monitors, so I'm using cheap ones and I can't hear the band that well.

“I went to my appointment and had nothing done. I didn't like how they were doing things and how they were talking to me so I left. When I was trying to figure out the insurance thing, the doctor was acting like she was trying to sell me a used car. She was very quick to talk, and saying things like "you'd be ridiculous not to do this" and that kind of thing.”
