Not sure how many I've had, all but one routine. I skipped a few years because of experiences like that. But my last two were nice. Now I'm in uncharted territory as I've moved from a city of almost a million to a small town of not even 25,000. Just had this talk with my doc, he wants it cause of my age....can't wait to reach 65 and be on the other side. There's really no excuse for techs to be cold and rude.
