Disappointed yet more Determined

As you all know I have been working on transferring my follow-up care to another practice.  I don't feel that I am receiving the quality of care that I deserve at True Results.  I contacted a local bariatric surgeon group and made sure all of my paperwork was in order. 

The surgeon said No to accepting me as a new patient.  Her reasoning was since I lived in the area at the time of my surgery I should have been aware of all my options.  I'm disappointed that I was not accepted as a patient.  However, that only means there is a better practice for me somewhere else. 

I'm still on the look out.  I have not cancelled my appointment with True Results for August 2nd.  However, I am hoping to find a new practice before then.

Thank you all for the birthday love!!  I feel super special!!  You wonderful ladies ROCK!!!

Honestly, that doctor sound like a spoiled brat for not accepting you. Sort of like "since you didn't come to me first for treatment, I'm going to be a big old bitch and not treat you now...nanny, nanny Boo-Boo."

You know what I have to say about that? Fuck her for turning down your money in this economy. It shows she might have a doctorate, but no common sense or belief in the Hippocratic oath she took. She will treat patients...just the ones she wants to.

You're right...someone else better is waiting around the corner!

I have to agree with Stephanie, in all aspects but especially in that you'll find someone even better!

You'll find a good place. it's like that old saying: you look for it then you can't find it, but once you stop worrying/looking, the thing you were looking for just pops up. or something like that. well, you get the idea.

I think because it's so hot here i'm losing brain cells. yup, i'm for sure that's what's happening.

I just don't understand people like that. I'm sorry you are having such issues with True Results. The one we have here seems so great... Hope you find someone awesome!

I agree with Stephanie and Ronnie- that was obviously not the doctor for you either. Keep looking around.

What Stephanie said...

It sucks that doctors aren't more willing to help out a patient who is unhappy with their current level of care. It's not like you are having complications or anything, you just want to receive better follow up care...gesh!

Hang tough, honey! The right doctor is out there and you WILL find him/her!!

~Lisa~ said...

I'm speechless.. Seriously?? Well, talk about a warning beacon going off about this Doc... STAY AWAY!! STAY AWAY!!

Your Doc is out there, keep looking!

Cece said...

Agreed ... you definitely don't want THAT doc ... you'll find a good match and they'll be lucky to have you !

MandaPanda said...

Wasn't a good doc anyway...good riddance to her. What an itch. I'm sure you'll find someone good...just gotta keep on keepin' on.

Barbara said...

Ok that sucks.. I didnt realize a doctor can refuse to take a patient on.. hang in there sweetie better options are out there. and oh.. Happy Belated Birthday.. don't know how I missed it, I must have been staring at my boobs or something.

Well that pisses me off. Who is he to say no? That's just dumb. His loss. Keep looking...God has a plan....I know it!

Andrea said...

How rude! You would think they would want your business! Oh well, like you said there is someone better out there for you and I'm sure you'll find it!

Liz said...

Ditto to everyone else! It just means she must not have been the right doc for you. You'll find someone, doll!

I completely agree with your thoughts on this... Let's just thank that silly little doctor for not accepting you as it just helps focus the way to the right doctor for you!!

Manda said...

OMG! That sucks. I was hoping to hear good news for you, also since I'm looking because I hate True Results and the people there too. I know your pain personally because thats the same woman that I've dealt with.
