It is currently 5:15 near the admissions office at the UCLA hospital. Apparently when I arrived here they told me they have not yet cleared the surgery with my insurance company and that the secretary working on the case wouldn't come in until 9am. Ack!
The mix-up could have happened because I switched my schedule to an earlier time (my awesome surgeon called me up personally and asked me if I wanted an earlier time since his other patient canceled). I guess the other people didn't know about the time change.
