Hmm that is silly, your doctor should not wait to make you the appt. especially considering the well versed and experienced doctors have a longer wait list. If medical records are being requested they should just be forwarded directly (takes way less time) and your foot doctor should write a brief synopsis of what is going on with you (his opinion)and then kindly request a consult and rx. This means your doctor would be requesting the new PM doctor to diagnose and treat accordingly.

An internal medicine doctor is one who treats the whole body including chronic diseases. They are a glorified PCP and generally work more closely with specialists for hard to diagnose or treat conditions. They are not pain doctors but work closely with them and other specialists in your care. They can also treat/diagnose the co-morbid effects CRPS/RSD causes for us.
