If urgent care can’t fix it and I can’t do anything with pliers, I’m just gonna have to live with it.
Illegal aliens use the ER as their “free” medical care since the ER cannot turn anyone away.

I’m not sure about most group insurance companies, but my medical insurance pays better if I go to an ER rather than one of those emergency clinics.
