[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 520180, member: 84"] H&R First, if you weren't talking to the doctor? Ignore it and address any issues you have when you see the doctor. Odds are even if it's office policy, most docs don't stick to such things because it is stuipd...not to mention can lose them patients. Many doctor offices are now corporations ect.......in other words docs don't have a lot of say as it's a profit gig. I don't remember what it's called, but many around here have switched to that type of office because they were having money troubles. Docs don't usually like it either. I simply made appointments. I rarely, unless I needed seen asap, told staff what the appointment was for. None of their bleeping business. HIPPA you know? lol Then when I'm face to face with doctor, I address what I want addressed. IF doctor goes along with this money milking scam (and c'mon we ALL know that is ALL it is) it's time for a new doctor. If they're only in it for profit, they don't have their patients as their top priority, and seriously do you really want a doctor like that?? I don't. I've never had any trouble finding a doctor that suits me even if I have to shop around. Docs are a dime a dozen (which is why profits are down), sometimes it's wise to remind them of that.
