In search of a new dr...

I've been completely fed up w/ out Dewitt Army Hospital works and am determined today I am going to try to get the ok from tricare to just go out in town. This all started yesterday when I called the Peds clinic to try to get the dr to put in the referrals for Mikey to go to DC childrens hospital for his yearly cleft clinic. Getting referrals for this should not be a hard thing to do, due to the fact that he needs to go due to a birth defect, he has gone every single year and in CO they had absolutely no problem just letting me call in the referrals because his primary care DR does not need to see him. Well they have decided they want to make me bring him in so that we can ask the DR in person for the referrals. So you're telling me my kid needs to miss school just to walk into the drs office and me say we need referrals and them put in in the computer WTF...

Then...today I finally had a dr appt to find out what is wrong with me because I have not slept an entire night since before Sammi was born. Even when she sleeps through the night I'm up til at least 2 then up every hour after that. I'm just exhausted. Well first the Dr acts like i'm there just to get sleeping pills or something. Then just because it is not in my records here she questions the fact that I told her i had a baby in November because she does not see it in my records (Yea i'm making it up...whatever...) THEN...she has the nerve to say to me "well i see records from 2003 in here" and I explain to her that they are from when I was with my exhusband and she says....."WOw...where do you hang out that you get all these military guys to marry you" OMG...this just pissed me off. She was NOT joking either. SO....now i'm on a mission to find a new primary care doctor and not at Dewitt either because I refuse to go back there.

OMG that is totally uncalled for!! I probably would have smacked her. With Tricare you can request 1 PCM change per year per person. When I was in VA I saw a civilian. You just have to find a provider on their network and make the switch. They have a list of providers on their website. Good luck and I would so totally never go back there!
