It will work out for you just keep your head up. I went through the same thing with my Doctor. I finally got in touch with someone through their website. Have you tried that? Then eventually the called me after I emailed them repeatedly. And they got set up at a hospital here in Baton Rouge and started seeing patients again. They have to work too so I'm sure they will set up somewhere to practice temporarily. Just don't give up it will work out for you.

Hi there, read the post "Help Me Please", it is all about Dr. Scott and who his replacement is and the phone number to get through. Tulane downtown is NOT getting torn down, at least that is what they told me on Tuesday. Dr. Scott by the way is now practicing in Dallas at the University of Texas. His replacement takes Medicaid too. If you can't find that other post e-mail me and I will give you the information.
