To get your medical records, and the disk which you MRI is on, just go to the office. Your neuro doesn't have to say OK for that. Most of the time there is a charge for the records. This is worth the cost, as then you will have them if you have to go to another physician. No worry with getting records to them.
the surgical report is important.....Impressions are given, or a synopsis, of what was done to you. Good way to learn the terms and language of the condition too. Your records are yours, and you do have a right to a copy of them." No "from the office is not an option. All my best to you. ginnie
