Hey guys, for those of you that have got accepted, how are you doing with all the requirements on Castle Branch? I have everything done except the medical stuff. All of the medical stuff is taking sooo much longer than I was expecting & even though I started the process of getting the blood tests and physical right away, the results and papers to fill out by my doctor is taking forever (Kaiser is making everything so complicated). My doctor wouldn't fill out the forms and they have to be sent out to the Release of Information people at Kaiser to be filled out, the doctor ordered two of the five titers wrong (qualitative) which has been a freaking huge hassle, and my TB test came back positive so I need a chest xray which takes days to interpret and then I have to go back in to get a doctor to sign the questionnaire thing about that. 

I am not going to have it all done by Monday & I have been communicating with the clinical lady about it all and she said just keep her updated but I'm freaking out that the medical stuff is going to be late. Is anyone else going through this? I just need to hear somebody else is struggling also to help me calm down LOL Hoping to not be like kicked out of the program or anything if this stuff is late

Hey 

So Im having a hard time too. Some of the titers (2) were qualitative, and the rest were quantitative titers.  

My doctor won't sign the physical either until 1 titer is back. 

 

You are not alone.
