I went back to his office to get a copy of my x-rays and a photo from my Endodontist. They would not give me my photo and were very rude. The one lady lost her cool when we were discussing a potential surgery date and the conversation went down hill quickly. I ended up leaving and wonder how anyone with a position who interfaces with the public could be so unprofessional.
You paid for the films they are your property. I had a similar situation when I lived in California and had to sign a release to get the films but I stood my ground and got them anyway. I told them I had nothing but time and would take them to small claims court which would cost them a day away from the office, it was amazing how fast I got the films. If they had been nice I probably would have just left but when they were rude I got my back up.
