All I can say is that I get them too. They seem to coordinate with times when they should be calling me to remind me of an appointment. My dealings are with the Dowling South building on the Uconn Health Center.I have no upcoming appointments but I am expecting an important call from a doctor to reschedule surgery presently set for January. Too bad they have such a long and drawn out phone messaging system that I have to endure to get through to them... )-:
I USE UCONN MEDICAL CENTER FOR TYHEIR NGREAT DENTAL CLINICS AND SEVERAL OTHER SPECIALISTS. THEY HAVE THE BEST REPUTATION IN THE STATE AND THEY ARE STATE SUBSIDIZED SO THEY ARE THE LLEAST EXPENSIVE, BUT THE WAITING LIST IS INCREDIBLY LONG. YOU MAY GET AN APPOINTMENT A MONTH AWAY, BUT IF THEY GET A CANCELLATION, THEY WILL TRY TO FILL IT, SO THEY WILL CALL DOWN THE LSIT UNTIL SOME LUCKY SOB PICKS UP THE PHONE! THE NUMBER 8602551999 IS THE UCONN GENERAL OUTGOING NUMBER; IT APPEARS REGARDLESS OF WHICH DEPARTMENT HAS CALLED YOU. IF YOU DO NOT ANSWER IT SHOULD LEAVE YOU A CALLBACK NUMBER, BUT I HAVE FOUND THAT SOMETIMES THE NUMBER IT LEAVES IS NOT UPDATED, OS YOU ARE LEFT SCRATCHING YOUR HEAd ...rest assured this **is** uconn medical center. if you are not a patient there, then there is no way to call them back unless they leave you amessage , and even then, as i said it is infuriating because the automated system frequently leaves the wrong call-back number.
Just got a call from them saying they have been trying to fax over a prescription and they keep getting an error message. Well, no kidding as I live in Ottawa Canada and have never had an appointment there.
