Angels,

You are not back to square one as that was with the original surgeon. You have fortunately moved on from him.

Keep moving forward, don't cave in now. Call the other two ID doctors asap, let the receptionist know you are in an urgent situation with a jaw bone infection. Get the other referral of another OS from the ENT OR call the referral that the second OS office gave to you (you told me in a pm that he gave you one while he was on vacation) and follow through with making an appointment.

I have a question ... are you only staying within your insurance network with these dentists and doctors?

I will go read your PM now.
