Expert Advice Needed Again...

Well, as you all may or may not know, I had my psych evaluation with the guy who told me to buy Dr. Phils book. He made me come back and pay a copay three times. It took him three weeks to get it typed and sent to Peoria (where I am having my surgery...about a 2.5 hour drive from my house). My surgeons office told me they had to have their psychologist look it over to make sure that everything was gone over in my eval. Three weeks later I started calling every day because their PhD still hadn't read what my PhD sent yet. FRUSTRATION. Then after making myself well known by everyone, the PhD called me himself. My next step was actually to call my insurance and see if I could get the surgery done someplace else! Their PhD finally called me and said, "I am not going to okay this report unless you agree to be medicated for depression post surgery and you have to call a psychologist in your area and have an appointment set up before your surgery is even scheduled." I guess that is what I get for being the squeeky wheel. Now I will sit and wonder if they will EVER call me to schedule for surgery after six months of getting approved and waiting. What should I do?
