Is it wrong for me to expect the same day/time from my T?
</div></font></blockquote><font class="post">I don't think it is a right or wrong issue. How does your T usually schedule his clients? Does he do standing appointments?
</div></font></blockquote><font class="post">
I think many of his patients have their own time and then there are some that do not. I'm pretty sure I did ask him if I could have the same day/time and that is how we got on this schedule to begin with. I can't be 100% sure though.

If so, then can you tell him your desire to have a standing appointment?
</div></font></blockquote><font class="post">
Yes, I am going to ask him this outright next week and then ask him if he will tell the office manager that.

My T has asked me a number of times, "what can I do to make it safe for you here?" so this is a concern of his. I really like when he asks this
. Do you know how you would answer if your T did ask you that question?

I wish he would ask me this and since we've talked about this a few times, I'm surprised he hasn't. Is he waiting for me to tell him? or does he think he is doing enough and I'm the issue?

Ouch! I hope you can mention that to him and get clarification on if he really meant it was OK to call him about your health.
</div></font></blockquote><font class="post">
I've asked him before and he has said okay. Also, there are times I felt like calling him about my son's health issue etc. and he'll say "you can call, we have an emergency number" because it was on a weekend that my son had some issues.
This is just confusing to me...

I hope you can have this discussion with him and learn the answers so you can know what he can or can't give. It is really reassuring to know the boundaries (even if you don't like them) so you aren't left wondering what you can and can't expect..

You're right Sunny. I need to know for sure. I fear he will say he didn't get the message or he was busy...blah, blah, blah...like he has said in the past.
I hate that I called him and I'm so mad at myself now...
