What I am requesting is advice on a new medical practice who will help me and reeducate in Cpap use.
Currently, I am with Ocala Lung and they keep scheduling me and then canceling appointments. This has happened twice this month.
Any suggestions for a new medical practice?
Thank you

Maybe a home health agency nurse could show you exactly what to do? If Ocala Lung can't get you in maybe your primary care physician could write a prescription for home health. I'm not sure if this would work or not but you could start by calling a few home health agencies to find out if they do this sort of thing.
