Have you ever heard of anything…

Have you ever heard of anything so ridiculous before or what? After our disaster with our allergist this week and really no other options of going anywhere else I decided to call our 2nd specialist that we saw. They will not see him as a returning patient until it has been 1 year since his last visit. So this means we have to go 5-1/2 months before we can see him. I questioned the nurse and she stated that was their policy. I have always heard that a new patient usually takes longer to get in but not once you are a patient it is a little easier to get an appt. What is up with 1 year waiting period?

Has anyone else had to do this before?

we can only get in when we make an appointment. like we went when shane was 5 months old… and before we left we had to make it for when he was 9 months old. soo if something came up inbetween those months i couldnt get in unless it was probably an emergency. everytime i have called the nurse will only talk to me..

soo i guess a year is probably a long time ..and kinda crazy.. i thought 4 months was long!

I don’t understand because he had appts before that were 2-3 months wait at this dr.s office but the nurse would not schedule anything sooner than a year since his last appt.

I was never able to talk to the dr & it would take 1-2 wks to get a script. In the end I change dr.’s because they would change his appt. because the dr would not be there and what went from a 2-3 month wait went to 5 months.

It just seems odd waiting a year!

Sounds like he has too many patients and not nearly enough compassion!
