I continued to be pressured and politely left the office. Medicare ,my insurance, and I received bills. Prior to their arrival, I received a call from the doctor's office telling me to either come back for ALL the tests or find another doctor. I had already chosen the later. The secretary warned me my insurance would not pay for another visit for one year. I knew this was incorrect.
My message is to watch for unscrupulous activities everywhere. They"re also present in the professional group too.
