I am going to try Shands next week as I can see this hospital is not going to help. As I said before I expected better. He can go anywhere with his insurance but does not drive. I am only here part time, I am not even supposed to be here now.
Clarice, I was referred to Dr. Saumil Karavadia at Advanced Urology by my PCP and he didn't have any pull. He met Dr. K at some function, remembered his name, and got me in pretty quick. I'm am beyond thankful for seeing Dr. K. Something is just very confusing. In my humble opinion, your dad needs to see a urologist (try Dr. K at Advanced Urology) again, and get him a new PCP.
