I don't know this for a fact but I don't think Dr K does pre testing. When I called about making the apt for the consult since I was coming a distance the nurse who I spoke to said if I decided to do it I could do it right away. I could be wrong though since I have not went for the consult yet.
Unfortunatly this issue does not surprise me. Some doctors just want you in asap to make the money. Sorry to be negative
