why is this in the majors when so many other topics have been bounced? nailing it mods... nailing it...

Harper is excellent.

I'm a cheap SOB, so the reason I tolerated Williams and his nurse ratchet + the 3.5 hours it took to get through there was because all I've ever paid was my deductible.

I don't know how, or why he was able to code it so insurance paid for my medical for 8 years, but I don't care. Why someone else can't do it is a mystery.

Maybe that's why he stepped away from it. I was told it was because the FAA was requiring him to upgrade his computer system and his wife didn't like that devil box to begin with.

If you have any non-routine 'issues', you owe it to yourself to contact Dr Bruce Chien in Peoria. Besides being a great AME and pilot, he knows the FAA internal processes better than anybody, and can often issue same-day SI's for things that usually take months.

I know, because he did it for me.

His charges are very reasonable, he's happy to consult with you even if you wind up taking your actual physical closer to home.

Just don't lie to him.

Just don't lie to him.

Because it insults his intelligence?!

Thanks for the heads up. I'll check them out. Looks like all of Vareens records are being sent over to Dr. Walker in Peachtree City.

Big +1 for Dr. Walker, I've had some non-routine medical visits over the past 2 years and he's been a great help with keeping everything good with my medical and the FAA.

Nurse Ratchet was cool! I hated the 3.5 hour visit, but trading snappy lines with her and listening to her sarcasm was great. And you knew she was going to get you through the exam unless you died so seriously that she couldn't cover for you.

Doc Williams' wife was great, too. No nonsense tolerated, for sure. I once watched her toss a raving psychopath out of the office practically single-handedly after he started throwing chairs across the waiting room and threatening people, and then go back to work just like nothing had happened.
