I had my medical today!!

I went to Dr. Seiden in Toronto, it went really smoothly! I got there really early (6:30am) since I didn't know how long it would take from Oakville, but there is no traffic at that ungodly hour, so I was the first one in...

BIG TIP: DO NOT PARK ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE STREET from the clinic!! I made the mistake of not noticing the signs. I was sitting in my paper gown and the receptionist started banging on the door "is your car the black one parked out front it's being towed hurry get dressed!" I said you have to be kidding me so I threw my clothes on and the tow truck was just hitching on to my car, I moved it just in time and got a $60 ticket to boot... Well I learned my lesson READ THE SIGNS!!

If anyone has already had their medical do you know if the envelope says "DO NOT OPEN" on it? I chose the courier service and I put my work address, and I thought after what if the receptionist at my office mistakenly opens my envelope.....

OH GOOD!

I can have it mailed to me!!!

How long does it take to usually get the package???

Did you have to bring your own envelope so they can mail your package to you?

Sorry about the parking ticket...glad everything else went well!!!

Well at least it's only $60, if you had been towed it would have been much more to get it out of the impound lot on York Street, which is a short but annoying walk from Front Street.

I believe all medicals from all panel physicians say DO NOT OPEN on the envelope in large letters. As to whether or not your receptionist can read, I wouldn't venture to guess.

Yes Laura I was quite happy myself to find out they can courier it to you, for a small fee of $20 cash which is pennies to save me the hassle of going back downtown!! No need to bring an envelope just the $20! And they send it 48 hours later so I should have it by Thursday!! Now all I'm waiting on is my interview date!!

HAHAHA Seriously me either, I will tell her tomorrow "don't open any envelopes addressed to my attention!" I was so grateful to the lady coming to get me, she saved me $300 plus the trouble of getting to the impound lot!

$20 is nothing at the gas pump, and you'll burn that much gas driving in from Oakville down the QEW.
