I've called Premiere Medical Associates asking about refunding the charges, but they insist they were for services rendered. The two 2 minute appointments (which gained me nothing) were an expensive learning experience! I should have had some warning when they required me to make a second appointment just to go over lab work (with all labs in the "normal" range). I've never had a doctor require me to make an appointment to go over normal results. They are in it for the money.

Sounds like 90% of the doctors here and in other parts of the country and it is not going to get any better. Most doctors these days want to be highly paid specialists, except OB/GYN doctors due to their high end malpractice insurance.
