Reviews are limited by at least two things: The reviewer's knowledge/background and the author's temperament. Sometimes the reviewer's understanding and interpretation of a piece misses the mark. When the author believes this is the case, he can become hurt or angered. Please don't be. This review is neither a condemnation of your work, nor an extolment. It's just my opinion, nothing more.




It is pretty good Scott! Yeah, you’ll probably hear that one a lot, lol. But it is true, you gave this tale the old run-around where no one wants to deal with the situation and sends the ill person on to the next one. Usually I’ve seen this type of thing to describe bureaucratic nightmares, where the person with the complaint gets sent along from one department to the next until he ends up again at the beginning. I’ve been in a few situations like that before actually.

It is funny of course, all these quacks who claim knowledge, either have none or can’t be bothered to even take a look. What ads to the humor is the wordplay that you employ here. Often a single word sends the protagonist on his way to his next specialist, and even to the taxidermist, lol.

Actually this seems like something a general practitioner might write, as a way to show the uselessness of specialists when an issue is of a general nature. However, it’s real intent, I am sure, is just to make the reader laugh, and you accomplished that quite easily. It is creative, well written, and a little silly, but silly in a good way, as only someone who writes humor would understand.
