Also, as an existing patient, they would ALWAYS find a new physician for you. Sounds like there has been some miscommunication, I would advise talking to the practice manager at the center where you are currently a patient and straighten this out.
In a later post the OP mentioned they had BC/BS. There are only a small handful of doctors in TV Healthcare who accept that and those are probably unable to accept new patients.
