edit: And I thought that there were very few hoops to jump through. I don't see how it could be any more convenient. An oral history was taken over the phone instead of in person. I figured that's how a UTI is diagnosed since the infection is internal. Lab results take a day or two, and it's inhumane to make a patient wait that long before treatment. The doctor's office is 25 minutes away and the result would have been the same. I agree that antibiotics can be used too much and should only be used when needed, and I think this is one of the times they are needed. (We'd probably bash heads on this Nirvana, but I think antibiotics should be banned for animal use. Save them for humans.)
