I went to get resources for my wisdom teeth just like phone numbers and times I could walk in. As I am deployed, so then this dumbass E-7 that works with me always questions and freaks out why I am getting checked out. Basically asks me a back story why my wisdom teeth hurt, then I my dumb ass tells him answers why in detail to his dumb ass questions. Later on my other Noncommisioned officers ask me about my wisdom teeth and tell them it’s not a big deal right now and I can wait for maybe about 2-3 months. Then on Thursday they tell me they can’t take me to the dental clinic, followed up by me on Friday not caring and not going to the clinic because it’s a 20 min walk in 100•F. I refuse to walk and sweat for something that’s not so big yet. So then today I get yelled at infront of everyone that why I didn’t go, and if they had to hold my hand to the dental clinic it wouldn’t be pretty.
The real question is who is in the wrong, I am in the military in a deployed environment so that could flip the answer completely. I believe I’m not in the wrong because I went to get resources for myself not for them. I was planning to get checked out like a month or two after today. Just tired of these dumb ass people, I’ve never seen any leadership like this before so trash and overpowering just because I’m E-4 doesn’t mean I have to get trashed over nothing. A rank doesn’t make respect, an actual leader does who doesn’t try to humiliate you in front of the office for dumb shit like that, or trying to better myself.

It’s not a HIPAA violation, lol. That’s for us that work in the hospital. Like if your command comes and asks for health records or information and we just give them everything. That’d be a HIPAA violation on the hospitals part. Dental is actually apart of readiness just like immunization. So if you’re not up to date in dental IMR immunizations or anything else you could get “flagged”. I’m a medic and work in mental health so I’m not familiar with dental flight, but there are different classes and you have to be “ready”. I’m not sure which information command has to be informed about on the dental side but we are in the military so getting that shit checked and being up to date in it is mandatory. Just like you had to be cleared to deploy.
It was definitely shitty and petty to blow you up in front of everyone though.
You sound closer to an Article 15 than a HIPPA violation.
How I never cursed at any of them, no curse words were said. I could see a failure to adapt , or an obeying direct orders but they’re forcing me to go
I hear you, but Uncle Sam can make you go.
