[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 69203, member: 84"] I'd call your insurance to see if a referral is absolutely necessary. If it isn't, make the appoints yourself. We were supposed to get doctor referrals for specialists with husband's last insurance. I can't recall a single time that I actually did. I just called and made appoints. Insurance covered it. With one that I had with a neuro, insurance didn't want to pay, so I went back to pediatrician doctor and got the referral. lol pediatrician doctor had no trouble giving it when neuro had given Travis the diagnosis of epilepsy. [img]:rolleyes:[/img] When you called childrens did you ask for the neurology clinic? They should know more of what your talking about. At our childrens both the neurologists and neuropsychs work together in the neurology clinic. psychiatrist can also referral for the evaluation. And if it were me and my child's pediatrician doctor chose to ignore such symptoms..... I'd be finding another pediatrician doctor! [img]:grrr:[/img] Unfortunately, I've heard that same response from several docs over the years. Believe me, the good ones don't take that approach. Hugs [/QUOTE]
