The Breast Health and Screening Program/ May View Community Health Center asked if I wanted Palo Alto or Mountain View. I selected Mountain View and was transfered before I could hardly explain what it was that I needed. The Mountain View connection allowed me to explain what is was I needed; a Mammogram and an Ultrasound, and then said that they were just a small clinic that did not do those things. They said that I needed to call the San Jose Hospital. Which I did. The number is: (408)885-5000.

San Jose Hospital rang me through to an automated service, which I bypassed most of by speaking the word "OPERATOR" into the phone loudly and clearly. I was transfered to the Operator. I explained what I was looking for and was transfered to the Radiology Department. I explained to the woman answering the Department line that I was looking for a Mammogram and an Ultrasound. She asked for the Regular Doctor's referral. I explained that I had started at Planned Parenthood, was referred to Susan G. Komen, who referred me to the SF Affiliate Offices for Susan G. Komen, who referred me to the Breast Health Screening Program and the May View Community Health Center, who referred me to the Mountain View Clinic, who referred me to the San Jose Hospital and that the operator had transfered me to her Department; the Department of Radiology. I was put on hold. And then I had dead air. (Yeah... It's like some horrible Comedy of Errors, only this is really not funny...)

Nothing came up when I searched them on-line.
