Two down, who's next?

I'm not quoting "The Goonies" with the title, but I did hear it in the actors voice as I typed it.

My chiropractor, who has been out of town since February 4, finally got back into town. When I walked in for my appointment today, half the lights were off and the office felt cleaned out. The radio was off, the TV in the lobby was off. The various medical pamphlets were emptied out. I was led to the only room with the lights on.

The atmosphere was forboding.

He's retiring. The office is getting stripped down. No longer taking insurance, and even his card reader was gone. It was either cash or check.

Who even carries a checkbook anymore? A little paper slip that pinky-swears you have money? Well, I don't carry much cash any more either, so he cleaned out my wallet.

I would have appreciated the warning.

This is the second time I retired a chiropractor. I'm actively looking for a replacement that is either my age or younger. I'm old enough that someone in the field would have a reasonable amount of experience. If you know of one - do not reach out to me that would be weird. How do you even know how to contact me?
