What is the name of your state?TX
I am going to try this once again and instead of making two messages I will now have three but this one will be the intire message. Okay, I worked for four months at a doctor's office where the office manager was real mean. These are some of the things that went on that make me feel I need some help. I know that nobody cares if I am sad or hurt, I just need some advice and here it goes........I was asked if I was married and I said yes. My office manager asked me if the kitty cat ever strayed. I was disgusted and said NO! Coments were made about my breasts and if they were real or fake. I had to have lab work done on myself after I was stuck with a used needle that a staff member did not dispose of immidiately in the sharps container. I was told because it was her at fault the clinic would pay my lab bill. It is still unpaid and going into collections as of 9-2-05. The office manager used profanity all the time, his favorite word was M*F*. He degraded me in front of other staff, saying I would never get a raise because I was not as good as the other girl I worked with and I would not get one until I was as good as her. I was told one day that people like me should be shot in the head, I did not answer the phone the way the office mang. wanted me to and this is what he told me. He would grab my arm and pull me to where he would show me I did something he did not like or was not up to his standards. He grabbed my arm and pushed me out of the way and told me if I could not run the front office without being slow that he would just do it himself. He told me if a new MA came into the office that they would be better than me, this is because I was also new and I would not code lab sheets because for each person the codes change for their particular matter. This is the doctors duty. I would take a chart into his office and say where do you want me to put this and he would slap himself in the face and say he was not going to go there, and said but you can leave the chart on my desk. He would have the doctor take charts home because they would be behind and if you know HIPAA you know you can't do that. He would say he is the devil and God himself is scared of him. The day I quit I had been cleaning the office at the end of the business day and took trash out to the dumpster and when I came back in the office manager had set his trashcan out in the lobby and as soon as I walked in the doors came storming out at me yelling that I have to put a trash bag back in his trashcan immidiately when I take it out. The day was over and there was no more trash, the other girl I worked with was right there. He never bothered to take me in to his office and tell me what he thought I was doing wrong. He enjoyed humiliating me, as well as others in front of everyone. We had 15 or 10 min. for lunch and worked 12 hr. days. I never had a break at all. He yelled at me in front of a patients room once and the patient even said that he should have pulled me away from any ears that might be listening. The list goes on and on. So should I do anything or have I waited too long? This happened in April of this year.
