Yes...finally called my Primary Care doctor for a new referral when the original referral called me several times to schedule (and subsequently "re-schedule" an endoscopy), actually scheduled me at the wrong office, called to straighten that out, and then left me the "reminder message" for the wrong day, wrong office. I backed out the day of their scheduled appointment, which I know is caca, but by that point I was actually afraid and wondering what procedure I'd get! I called the Office Manager to advise, and wrote a long detailed note to my doctor advising her to be careful in referring this center to other patients. Had I been truly ill and a little unsure of myself I'd have been very confused. The Doctor said she would also speak with them and let them know I asked her not to refer them again to her patients. I hope she did.
