So, I have to switch obstetricians - and I LOVE my obstetrician. I truly hate our insurance company. Just in case you were wondering, Humana is the devil.
I have called 5 new ob/gyn offices, but I do not like any of them. Please, let me explain...
1. Office number 1 had rude receptionists and was given a bad review by my current ob.
2. Office number 2 has 11 doctors, but they are all booked until the end of August. WHAT THE FUCK? The receptionist kept trying to get me to see a nurse or midwife, but I WANT TO SEE A DOCTOR.
3. Office number 3 only has 2 doctors that actually accept my insurance, but both are on disability leave.
4. Office number 4 is listed on Humana's website, but they swear that they do not accept Humana.
5. Office number 5 was actually a surgical group and not an ob/gyn office. I have no idea why they were listed on Humana's ob/gyn page.
I am actually considering staying with Dr. S and paying out-of-network charges again. I know, I am INSANE.
Man that sucks! Cuz didn't you just switch to this ob-gyn from the other one that you liked? I hope you find something that works for you but paying out of pocket gets expensive!
ReplyDeleteSucks Sucks Sucks.
ReplyDeleteI am having insurance issues, too. They and the doctor claim that they cover the doctor I went to, but then they won't cover any of the bill. Huh?
I hate insurance.
I'm so sorry you are having to worry about this.
my doctors office has a midwife. and to be honost a lot of the time i love to see her over the dr. she is so nice, and understanding and sweet, and i think i would be lost with out her, maybe give meeting her a shot, i love mine and my dr both.
ReplyDeleteThat all sounds a major pain! I always found my midwife better than the doc too!
ReplyDeleteI'd go to the one that is booked up and ask them for a referal to your doctor....sometimes going the long way around will work.
