i had a toothache and went to an emergency ward. they weren't very busy at the time. this was my second time at that hospital and both times it was like i was an animal. I'm looking and talking to these people and i know that there is absolutely nothing i can do. In their eyes i'm an animal. The doctor didn't explicitly say to just go away. He went through the motions and just didn't do anything to treat my agony. And no matter how bad the agony, their only policy is to just call security if i get outa hand. There was not a trace of human sensibility anywhere.
