Start of a New Year

Called New York today.  Asked for a different doctor to be assigned since we have heard nothing from the current one.  The person (Karen - extremely nice) I was talking to pulled Vanessa's electronic records and said Dr. Insinga had not presented Vanessa's case to the 'doctor's committee' yet BECAUSE HE HAS NOT FINISHED HIS NOTES YET.  I explained that's why I wanted a different doctor - if he can't finish a note in 3 months, I really didn't want him operating on my daughter's brain. I told her the only way he was going to operate on my daughter's head was if I were standing there watching his every move.  I also asked that the practice administrator be informed and that he contact me to speak of this situation.  She (Karen - the extremely nice one) emailed me within 15 minutes and said she had spoken with the administrator and he would contact me tomorrow. . . going to charge phone now.

  2. As of Jan 7th at 8:35pm - no word. I'm hoping that's a good thing. I'm hoping that means he has spoken to the doctor and he is reviewing her records and deciding to take action before she has to make that long, long trip.
