[quote=Anonymous]I don't really trust the urgent care facilities, fwiw. We took my child there once, and they "x-rayed" for a break. Only when I was signing out and reading the fine print did I notice a disclaimer saying it was not an actual x-ray, but something else (a c--ray, maybe?). We called an orthopedic surgeon after getting home and he said it was basically malpractice to not tell us that they were incapable of doing an x-ray, and that the machine they used would only be capable of detecting a break in a child's bones if the break were incredibly obvious. So we ended up spending 2 hours at the urgent care, then going back to the ER for another 3 hours. [/quote]
