just went to a new doctor who refused to prescribe me adderall
Poast new message in this thread
Date: March 21st, 2023 12:39 PM Author: Sinister new version Roughly a month ago, I moved to a new city. I've been taking adderall since college with no issues, and sought out a new primary care physician. I showed up to my appointment with about 30 pages of medical records from my previous doctor's office, and while the nurse was seeing me, she was like, "Oh, Dr. Turdskin refuses to prescribe adderall to adults." I explained that I've been taking this medication for years and to contact my previous doctor. She was like "I know, it's really weird, but it's a personal thing for him." She told me she could switch me to the other doctor in the office who will happily prescribe it, but she's on vacation until next week. I never got to meet the doctor and left with a promise that they'd call me to reschedule. They were also an hour late for the appointment. I showed up at 9:30 to fill out paperwork and didn't leave until 11:15.
I'm pretty infuriated and will be contacting ZocDoc and leaving a bad review on Google and Yelp. Fuck this guy. I could understand him meeting with me and perhaps explaining his reasons for not wanting to prescribe it, but he didn't even do that. I never met him and the nurse kept telling me that "he really is a very good doctor."
To me, there is something fundamentally flawed about a doctor who refuses to meet a patient and downright refuses to prescribe a popular and commonly used medication. |

The nurse even told me the other doctor in the practice will prescribe it, but she pretty much whispered that to me. Moreover, he was late. I have zero respect for people who are late. He would've been fine with charging me a (((missed visit fee)) if I strolled through the door 10 minutes late. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5310481&forum_id=2#46079909) |

Explain why this doctor allows another doctor in his practice to prescribe adderall. Additionally, his nurse told me that they'd need to set up an appointment with a psychiatrist associated with their practice who will prescribe the pills. It just seems like a transparent money grab with CSLG-style kickbacks and referral fees. Of course, we know that remuneration for referrals in the medical field is highly illegal and never happens.

Date: March 21st, 2023 2:30 PM Author: Opaque Business Firm Fortuitous Meteor doctors can't control what other doctors do with their license. nor would they want to. why have practice partners duke it out over something like adderrall? and the reason that doctor has a blanket prescription ban is that prescribing narcs invites scrutiny by the DEA. some physicians just don't want to deal with it. there are very few true indications for narcs to begin with, so the headache of prescribing is usually more troublesome than the loss of patient volume they incur by not doing so. they don't get money for the referral itself but BigHealth is definitely incentivized to buy out all the local practices and keep patients within their "system". you should find a shrink outside the practice, but they may have bought out enough practices that you don't have an option anyway.. |
