This story was told by a person incarcerated at Vacaville.
Caller: You know, but I believe that more can be done. If we had better care, if we had better healthcare.
Period. Some doctors are just not doctors. We have doctors here who – who don’t give a shit about your health.
UCI: Wow.
Caller: No really, really, wow. Oh my God. Wow is not the word for it. It’s unreal. It’s unreal when you have a doctor at – when you have a doctor laugh in your face and tell you it’s nothing.
And you know it’s so, so much more than nothing. That can be heartening – that can be disheartening, it can be heartbreaking. It’s enough to – you know, it’s unreal.
It’s unreal. You know, we have doctors here that, you know, would not – I mean, you know, really just unreal. You know, my doctor – my pers – my PCP is not a doctor.
In my opinion and so many other’s opinions. He’s not a doctor, he shouldn’t be practicing medicine. Yet he’s protected under the state and that’s just all there is to it.
There’s nothing you can do but hope for things to get better. And nothing gets better. Nothing gets better. And you suffer.
Like I said, I’ve been waiting over a year for a surgery. And it’s not that the surgery’s not there, it’s that my doctor – it’s a case of deliberate interference. It’s a case of deliberate indifference.
