Yes I have, once.
About 4 years ago I got really sick and so I drove over to one of those insta-care clinics. They put me on anti-biotics and said If I wasn't feeling better by the next afternoon, to come back. Next afternoon I was feeling even worse. They took my temperature and it was 104. They said, "You need to get to the hospital NOW! We'll call an ambulance." I told them I could drive myself and they wouldn't hear of it. They gave me 5 minutes to try to call a friend or family member, but I couldn't get hold of anyone, sooo they called an ambulance. The ambulance people were extremely nice. I was hospitalized with pneumonia and had to spend about a week there. Afterwards, I was on oxygen for about 2 weeks. The whole ordeal was kind of shocking. (So was the ambulance bill; $2000 for an ambulance ride 5 miles up the road from the clinic. Yikes!)
