William Morales7 said:Quick question—can the incision be done through public insurance or does it have to be private? And would it actually be better to go private even if the cost is higher? Also, how long is the healing process? Honestly, this thick hymen is just getting on my nerves and making me frustrated.

I can't speak to what public health coverage covers, but private practice certainly handles it. As for recovery, you should be able to get back to your normal routine almost immediately. It isn't such an invasive procedure that you need some lengthy "healing period." Once it's done, the issue is resolved. 🙂
First and foremost, I would suggest scheduling a consultation with a doctor to determine if a surgical procedure is even necessary, or if there's a way to manage this naturally.

Basically, I'm on the hunt for a gastroenterologist, so I figured I'd ask...🤔

Does anyone have any insight on Dr. Solomon (Marulić Square)?
My main priority is finding someone highly skilled and thorough; though, naturally, being approachable and polite is a significant plus.
Thanks!

I saw Dr. Solomon myself, though it was quite some time ago. I can offer my highest recommendation—nothing but the best from him.

Terry Howard said:So, I feel compelled to share this with everyone. Essentially, during my recent mole checkup over at Central Park, the doctor advised me to schedule a dermatoscopy for sometime this spring and provided a specific number to call for an appointment. Here is how the scheduling process unfolded:

Good day to you!
Good day to you!
I would like to schedule an appointment for a dermoscopy.
Look, does anyone else realize what time it actually is right now?
Me: 3:10 PM. Why?
Does anyone here actually know what our working hours are supposed to be?!
And where exactly might I find that available for reading?
Excuse me, but has anyone actually seen an outpatient clinic operating after 3:00 PM? I’m genuinely asking. Where on earth is this supposed to be happening?
Alright, when should I give them a call then?
In my opinion, it’s best to get this done before 1:00 PM.
Thank you very much, and goodbye.

I am sorry to report that there is currently no one available here. If you are looking to schedule an appointment, please be sure to call after 1:00 PM.
Thank you very much, and goodbye.

Good day to you!
Good day to you!
I would like to schedule an appointment for a dermatoscopy.
I am terribly sorry, but we won't be accepting any new orders until January 28th. Please do give us a call once that date arrives.
Thank you very much, and farewell.

And now, because I simply cannot find any peace of mind, I have decided to compose yet another call to action.

Good day to you!
Good day to you!
I would like to schedule an appointment for a dermatoscopy.
I regret to inform you that we can no longer accept orders over the phone. It is now mandatory to place your order in person. If possible, I would suggest coming by this Monday.
Hold on—are you actually telling me that I have to show up in person just to schedule an appointment that isn't even happening for several months?
Listen, I just heard some news that might be a bit of a headache for anyone looking for medical care: apparently, if you want to schedule your very first appointment, you actually have to show up in person. There’s no remote booking for the initial consultation—you have to physically be there. Just something to keep in mind so you don't waste your time trying to call ahead.
Thank you very much, and goodbye.

I mean, honestly, who among us is actually losing their mind here? If I decide to give them a call next week, what kind of response am I even expecting to face?
Has anyone else dealt with something similar? Also, does anyone happen to know where else in the city I can get a dermatoscopy done?

This needs to be front-page news! It's absolutely appalling!
I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed for you!
Greetings.
