Guest guest Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 You could leave it with a statement that you will be in touch to schedule your next appointment. There really is no need to explain it to them. Mavis In a message dated 7/11/2008 11:39:07 A.M.

You employ them Sheri That is a great analogy Sheri! I think the difference is about the fear that surrounds the vaccine issue. I mean if big mechanica were constantly advertising propaganda on Tv and such about how we are all going to die if we don't get our well car check ups, well then we would fear what they say and spend way too much time and money on pointless automotive procedures! HA! ! I will say again, I did not take any of my 5 to well baby check ups and they are all growing up very healthy, above the average for sure!

I would just say that you will phone later to schedule. You don't need to tell them you aren't coming back.

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 That's what I do. 'let me check my schedule and I'll call " .. I never call back. I do the first app't, usually anyway.. I don't see the need of the PKU test either. I'm not a high risk. But I've only skipped it twice now.

Guest guest Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 I take mine to their " scheduled " check-ups mostly for the paper trail. I don't ever want to be accused, if it came to it, of not providing " adequate medical care " (in their eyes). It's a waste of money, but might save me a lot of hardship down the road.

Guest guest Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 I used to do it partly for that, but more just to have someone on hand just in case. Now that my kids are older it's mostly because schools require a health form, as do sports and camps. Winnie Re: well baby checks ?
