I had what I thought was an issue with a physician a few years back... turns out, it was a staff member not forwarding my request to speak directly with the Dr, many, many times over.  It got to the point that I was having medical issues, she wouldn't schedule me and finally I wrote a letter stating each time I had called, who I spoke with and what I was told.. in the letter I was very specific to state that I wanted a return call from the Dr. within 5 days or I would file a greivence with my insurance company as well as the governing board over her license.  Wouldn't you know, I got a phone call within 2 hours of my fax (I also emailed, and sent a certified letter).  My physician was VERY apologetic, had no idea I had been trying to get in contact with her... I was scheduled to come in that same day, and wouldn't you know it.... her assistant was terminated.

I feel almost like a PCIP pro! Do you need info on this still?

Something sounds goofy about this......Dr. Cirangle is the most accessible doctor I've ever ran across....

I saw him 2 or more times a month during WL and at least once a month since than.......

Is she aware that he runs multiple support groups many times a month that are open to all of his patients?  I have continued to see him every single month and I am almost four years out now.  I call him and he calls me back within 24 hours, usually within one to two hours.  I have also emailed him and received a response the very same day.  There might be some problem with a particular staff member that I am unaware of, but he is pretty easy to track down and he does many conversions from the band so I am not at all sure what the real issue is here.  If she looks at his schedule, she can find him at one support group or anther almost every single week.
