Consult with Dr. Duncan
Hey Chandra,
After Dr. Duncan's Seminar I talked with the lady that scheduled surgeries and asked her that once I filled out the packet and came in for the consultation, how long would it be before I would have my surgery? She told me that it would probally be around July or even August. I explained to her that I was Dr. Robinsons patient and had already been approved by my insurance agency and been through all the pre-op so why did I have to wait so long. She politely told me that she was not going to put Dr. Robinsons patients ahead of Dr. Duncans, especially those who have been waiting for a surgery date. So, that is why I went to Emory since they are doing our surgeries immediately after the consultation date. I was shocked at the attitude of Dr. Duncan's secretary or what ever her title is but I can assure you that Emory has welcomed several of Dr. Robinson's patients with open arms and kind words. I hope that you are able to get your surgery date soon and that you are treated alot better then I was. God Bless You.
Love,
Becky Stanford
Thanks for the info Becky. You probaly talked to Joyce, the insurance coordinator. She can be a bit brash, but I guess she deals with us impatient patients everyday. I talked to Jackie and Jennifer B. at Dr. Duncan's office and they haven't even start scheduling for May yet. They schedule surgery after the insurance approval goes thru, whoever is approved first, gets surgery first. That's what Jennifer B. told me when I scheduled my appointment. I hope she was telling me the truth!!! Or I'm gonna be one mad girlie girl!!! But like you said, I will leave it in God's hands. He's gonna see me through.
