My dh likes Dr. Harris at Horizon on Hwy 42 W. in Clayton. My dh never went to the doctor on a regular basis (yearly check-up) until he met Dr. Harris.
Here is your pass.... I see you just registered in Jan. I think the use of the term "towel head" was completely unnecessary. T4T also has a history of inflammatory posts such as this. No pass for you, T4T. :lol: If you want to discuss somebody's accent, it is not only foreigners who are difficult to understand. Let me tell you about a house I rented in Benson once when I first moved to NC. Took me ten minutes to figure out this guy was talking about the electricity when kept talking about getting the "curnt turnt on", now he was pretty clear about allowing the stands in the yard on Mule Days... but "curnt"? WTH?
Cleo, If you knew me back then you could have called me! I speak fluent Hillbilly, Red Neck, & Southern belle. :mrgreen: I can hear my Grandfathers voice in your post.:lol:
I'll keep that in mind Koo, never know when it will come up again! We have just about all the bases covered now, with you and Ken. lol
my husband sees Dr. Turner at Garner Internal Medicine @ White Oak and loves him.. Mr. McCann, his PA, is really good too.
I second (or is it 3rd?) Dr Harris at Horizon Family! They are great, that's where my hubby goes and he sees Dr Williams (the rest of the family see Harris) They are very down to earth, remember you every time you come in, ask about the family, that kind of place...I couldn't imagine going anyplace else!
This is who I see (for the past 11 years), just not sure if he is taking new patients. I haven't actually seen Turner himself in a few years, but I love McCan and the there is another female PA that I really like too.
It doesnt have to be a white doctor at all. In fact I go to Dr. Clayton on hwy 70. He is the bomb. Dont start it please. It was the only way I could describe what I didnt want.
This is exactly what I am talking about. Those of you turning it so racial. I knew that would happen. I said nothing about race or qualifications. I just wanted someone with a good bedside manner and a doctor that would listen and not just "pass him through" COME ONNNN, those that have met us, we are not racist so just stop please. thanks Just looking for a good match for the hubby. I said the word mexican on here 4 or so years ago and everyone said I was racist and now towel head and the same. ughhhhhhhhhhh. So, I am a honkey, cracker whatever you want to say. I dont need a pass but thanks Cleo anyway. Love ya, mean it.!!!
They won't stop you know that right. You gave them something to rant about. Reminds me of children at play.
I know Grammie. Thanks. I am not on that often anymore anyway. Let em talk. I still love em... Let me get this for my own thread....opcorn:
And therein lies the problem. The only way you could think of to describe him was using a racial term. You could have easily said you were looking for someone who could speak clearly, or even did not speak with a foreign accent. Heck, you could have said you didn't want a foreigner. But no, you had to use a term that demonstrates bigotry. If this were the first time, you might have been dismissed. But this is not the first, second, or even third time. You have demonstrated a propensity for using racial slurs, because you can't think of any other way of saying it. If that was the only word you could come up with, then I think you should look within yourself and see if maybe you're lying to yourself as well as others when you claim your not a racist.
I guess they never watched All In The Family, ARCHIE BUNKER QUOTES: “The only thing that holds a marriage together is the husband being big enough to step back and see where the wife is wrong” “Man was put on this earth to eat meat...The Bible says so dumbbell...I mean look it up will ya? All them old bible peoples, they was always eating meet; soon as they found out eating apples was wrong...It's true, on special occasions: goats and lambs. Who the hell ever hear of sacrificing a head of lettuce? You?” “You can never buy beer, you just rent it.” I never said a guy who wears glasses is a queer. A guy who wears glasses is a four-eyes; a guy who's a fag is a queer.” “Why don´t you go bacl to bartender´s school and take a college course in shut-up? [On being reminded of his age by kelsey]” “In response to a ridiculous statement by Edith: " I've gotta quote for you, Edith. --'A bird that always flies in the fog is called a dingbat.' "” “An octopus has eight testicles.” “...like the Jews and the Seventh Day Adventurists” “Crowtins? What the hell are crowtins? (looking at Edith's grocery list: croutons)” “[In a 1986 interview with Playboy magazine, O'Connor said he had] a great deal of sympathy ... As James Baldwin wrote, 'the white man here is trapped by his own history, a history that he himself cannot comprehend,' and therefore what can I do but love him?” “This stupid mess we're in just keeps getting worse/ So many people dying needlessly/ Looks like the liars may inherit the earth/ Even pretending to pray/ And getting away with it.” ALL THE ABOVE ARE QUOUTES FROM ARCHIE BUNKER\ CARROLL O'CONNOR http://thinkexist.com/quotes/archie_bunker/
Add me to that as well. My grandfather (originally from NC) and then my current father-in-law (SW VA).
