[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 755328, member: 1233"] Find a new gyno. This is ridiculous. Ask how they handle refills. Here the pharmacist calls in for refills, not the patient. All docs have a nurse who just does pharmacy and doctor calls. It is ridiculous to have to throw a fit and see someone to refill HRT UNLESS a patient has gone several years without an appointment. pap screen, mammogram. If your last mammogram was years ago, then you need one. If it was in the last year, insurance won't pay for it, so refuse to do it. Quietly tell them, "insurance refused to pay", but ONLY if they ask. My doctor's office gets results. but the doctor doesn't even look at them unless it is flagged as having a problem or something unusual. Real radiologists don't even read them unless there is a problem. A computer reads ALL radiology scans except ultrasound. That is scanned by a human eye and then the computer, but the human eye has usually told you it is okay before you leave. At least here. I wouldn't put up with this nonsense for 2 minutes. It is not good quality medical care and I wouldn't trust them to identify a problem because they are forcing as many visits as possible to pad their own pockets. Because that is what is going on.
