HoRRiBLe LuCk!!

I have had some horrible luck with Class 3 requirements at Weber. I've been able to get some quads at the VA but when I'm at school the patients never come back after the OD appt. My first Class 3 patient here hadn't ever had a cleaning and she was 37. I basically did a gross debridement the first appointment because there was so much deposit EVERYWHERE!! I planned on bringing her back to finish this semester, and I even re-arranged my schedule to fit her in, but she isn't going to come back until January. ARGH!! And then my next patient who was a Class 3 was 2 hours late to her first appointment so I was only able to do the radiographs and OD. She was scheduled to come back today, and even confirmed her appointment last night, but she didn't show up, and when Mr. Solomon called she was at work. WTH?? So I'm really hoping she is able to come on December 2nd or else I won't finish my Class 3 exam requirements, and that is really stressing me out!!!!!!!

  1. I'm so sorry Karlie!! You really aren't having great luck, darn those class 3 patients! I'm sure if you can't finish your class 3 next week, professor Alexander will let you count your other class 3 patients as exams!! I'm sure everything will work out!! :)

  2. Maybe they will work with you on your class 3 exams. You never know what they will do for you. They love you and will help you out. Don't get stressed out yet. I will cross my fingers for you. I hope that your patient shows up and that you don't have to worry about it.
