Doctor couldn’t write a basic Rx
I made an appointment for a stiff neck interfering with sleep. The doctor told me to use heating pad, massage, take aleve and go to physical therapy. I was already doing those things and had a PT appointment scheduled. By the way he didn’t ask me what I was doing for the stiff neck. He just went straight to the “advice” part. He also said he thought a referral was required for physical therapy. It’s not. My state is a direct access state. , , I made very clear my sole reason for the appointment was that I needed muscle relaxers in order to have a full night’s sleep. The doctor told me that those are a good idea but company policy doesn’t allow him to prescribe muscle relaxers. They’re not controlled substances or anything. I believe this doctor is from out of state and doesn’t have Rx writing authority., , I respectfully asked for a refund for the extremely brief $75 visit. If the doctors are out of state and can’t write simple Rx, then what did I pay for?
