PREPARE a detailed letter outlining all of the discrepancies that you found. Then file a report with your State Medical Board of Review. Report the bastard.
Until we start sticking up for ourselves, NOTHING is going to happen, and these guys are going to continue to bully more pain patients the way he did you.
If anything, you will get a feeling of satisfaction of having done SOMETHING right. All the best to you. I've had the same thing happen to me here in RI. It's such a ROTTEN feeling. Please take care. I hope you find a doc that cares. xoxo Sandy

Hey Sandy,
I did (just today) receive a copy of my chart notes. Ticks me off (understatement of the year) just reading them. Yes, I will report him.
So get this. I call up and leave a message for MR to request my chart notes. They call me back. Without even verifying that it was me, or asking me to fill out a release or anything they fax them over to me. When I get them,
there is an additional page of info that isn't my info. 
Two people's FULL names, DOB, address, genders, and all their insurance info, like detailed insurance info about covered benefits. What looks to be something that their office probably requested from the insurance company or something. unreal!
