[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 302641, member: 7083"] My thoughts: He may be a wonderful doctor, but how great is he if you can't see him? I would look up your state medical board and find their guidelines. This stuff doesn't seem ethical. You have a child that is suffering and needs medical attention and they are denying her that. I would contact your insurance company about them refusing to schedule. I don't know if they can do that if they are under contract without getting penalized. I had a doctor refuse to perform a lapraoscopy because I hadn't paid for it prior to the procedure. In fact, he refused to see me as a patient anymore. My insurance company [U]told[/U] me when they approved the procedure not to pay until after it was done and after the insurance had paid their portion. They stressed it. It was in their contract. The insurance company jumped all over them for that. The doctor's office ended up reimbursing me for co-pays for the pre-op appointments and I'm pretty sure the insurance company didn't pay for them either. I'm so sorry that you are going through this and that Jessie is suffering. My heart aches for you both. (((hugs))) [/QUOTE]
