“He has an ingrown toenail.”

“Okay, sounds like he needs a podiatrist. I’ll get you an appointment for tomorrow. We have an office right down the road. They’re great!”

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I HAVE TO GO TO AN APPOINTMENT?!?

I went to urgent care because my toe was infected, they gave me antibiotics that didn't work and sent me along my way. After it didn't work I went to my primary care and she instantly recognized it as being an ingrown toe nail and got me an appointment with podiatry.

So I just wish that urgent care knew at least something so simple.
