> Does anyone else have problems getting their doctor to respond?
~~~ I don't have a problem getting my doctor to respond.
>And is that common place to have to pay for another appointment a week later just to talk to him about the medication?
~~~I would hope that's not common practice for doctors.
~~~What you describe is unacceptable. Speak with the doctor about this and if that doesn't make a difference in your relationship with them, I guess you have a choice: Switch to a Dr. more receptive or go to your local Medical or Doctor's Association and ask for guidence on how to handle this.
