Remember that "do no harm" part of the physician's oath? Well, doctors may pledge to it but I'm sure that medical corporations DON'T bother. All they care about is money. I've been told by The Neurology Center that I can't see my neurologist anymore because I have the wrong kind of insurance policy. I've been seeing this doctor for 25 years, he renews the proscription for the anticonvulsant I take to treat my epilepsy. Without it I am doomed. But the Neurology Center doesn't care.
@AverageCitizen I have to switch to a doctor who accepts my health plan. I hate switching doctors, they always wanna try something different when I already know what works.
@jjGravitas I worried about that when we switched to an adult neurologist. Thankfully he kept everything the same and didn’t even make her do any testing (aside from labs to check liver function). I hope you get as lucky as we did. Are you able to still contact your old doctor, perhaps he can refer you to a new neurologist who accepts your insurance?
