In the States if I want to send someone to a specialist I fill out a form and off they go. Here they are put on an airplane, get a hotel room in Dubai, and then see the specialist and then get on an airplane and fly back. If it's critical, they go down to role 3, the Navy hospital, so it takes "family practice" to a new level. Also if you're in a fob, you get on some sort of aircraft and make you're way dowm ere. Yesterday we treated a malaria patient with a high fever and chased a guy with hepatitis that took 2 days to get here then wechased him all over the base only to find him at role 3. I am a wee bit tired working 7/12.. Big day at the PX. They had a new batch of brooms!!! Cleaning day at 229 here I come...
