Hi Allen, I sure do hope you are feeling better by now. Congrats on getting even temp. insurance! If you can, get this new dr. to over-prescribe, so you have some meds left when the ins. runs out. I had a dr. do this for me, it was a real life-saver.
Allen, my work comp injury happened in Ca. too, I know what you are going through. It's been 14 years now, and I still get all emotional and angry when the subject comes up. It's so hard to let go.
I did everything right, when I was finally told the surgery had been scheduled. I called the AMA and the Orthopaedic Association too. Both of them told me the surgeon had NO malpractice suits or complaints on her record. I felt relieved and confident.
What they failed to tell me was that she had only been practicing for two years... and that she had three PENDING malpractice suits already!! OMG, like I would EVER had let her touch me if I had only known.
