so... I've been saying I would stick with my doctor's office for the first year... but I am kind of at my breaking point with them again I think.

I needed to cancel this up coming appointment. They called first, wanting to move the appointment to a day that I wouldn't have been available anyway. I asked if I could just cancel it and keep the appointment after. She said "hold on let me look at your file" ...

I need to try and come in. To which I explain that I do not have the freedom in my schedule to just come in any day of the week, and that is why I scheduled all my appointments on the same day at the same time. It worked with all the conflicting schedules in my life.

To which she replies that I should have gotten a different surgery then, because I knew when I got this surgery that I'd need to come in every month.

To which I reply that as I am in school, will be traveling over the next month for family and work stuff, and working, I would rather not have to deal with the stress of trying to make it to a rescheduled appointment.

She said some curt thing and said Fine but she was going to mark in my file that I CANCELLED the appointment.

and then we got off the phone.

I am so... like... really? REALLY!? This is so unprofessional. Between this and some of the comments I've received from the surgeon's assistant, and his refusal to give me information about my band (like how big it is and how much liquid is he's put in it), I am at the fed up point. I shouldn't have to deal with this type of stuff when it is health related. Has anyone switched surgeons within the first 3 months of surgery? Was it difficult?

I had almost the same thing happen to me today!!!!!! My drs office could not wait to get me off the phone today. She gave me a crappy appointment and was real short with me. I was almost in tears.

Was it Dr B in Richardson?

I would file a complaint with the office manager about the receptionist. If they tried to reschedule you to a day that did not work for you, then it is on them. I would see how they treat the complaint. If they don't care, I would find a new Dr.
