[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's your right OP. If that's what you want and willing to wait, insist on it. DW is a cardiology NP and had a patient like you. Rather than seeing DW, wanted to wait 6 weeks for a doctor. The idiot died of heart attack while waiting. DW could've saved his life by catching his problems but what can you do. [/quote]

Pretty shocking that you refer to your wife’s deceased patient as, “an idiot.” Such compassion.

Since I assume you heard the tale from her, that is even more appalling.

Another take on this might be that it was highly irresponsible (malpractice?) for the office to put off a patient with a life-threatening condition for six weeks, when all he wanted was to see his doctor. But still they found no way to move up his appointment.

Some practices might have felt awful about this turn of events. The incident might have caused them to investigate how the case was handled…but your wife and her colleagues just wrote this poor caller off as “an idiot. “

Please do share the name of the practice  , if you think they operate to such a high standard.[/quote]

My thoughts exactly. PP and his NP wife both sound like callous morons. [/quote]
