This is a blog about the frustrations of a pediatric inpatient practice. Some posts will be about kids, some about parents, some about "the system," and the rest about whatever I want to talk about.

You paged me-where are you?
I only see patients that are sick enough to be hospitalized. For that reason, I really hate when I return a page from an office doc only to be put on hold by a receptionist who has no clue why I'm being paged (or even that someone paged me). I don't mind holding for a minute or so while they get the doc. I mind holding for 10 minutes while the doc finishes whatever he's doing. Or even longer because they don't page me to the back line, and I have to go through the damn phone tree. I am supposed to be taking care of sick kids, not sitting on hold with my thumbs up my ass.
