Discriminitive neurologist
By: oxygen | 30-07-2008
I am a carrier of the Aids virus. I had an episode where I chewed my tongue while I was sleep. My doctor suggest that I visit a neurologist. The chosen neurologist sent papers for me to sign and did set a date for our 1st appointment. Days later I receive a call from an employee stating that the doctor has decided not to see me and that I am to tell my doctor to seek a different neurologist. That was all she was going to say until I stopped her and asked, "why the cancellation? Her answer was... "your diagnosis". She did not say what diagnosis. My question is... can he simply agree to meet with me, then for no actual known reason, cancel and decide that he will not see me at all or help me and for me to seek help elsewhere? R.J.
