Default doctor won't call back

What's the protocol here? It's not an emergency, and the doctor knows it, but I want him to start my Imuran (we had some stuff to work out first). What is the prudent thing for a patient in this situation to do? I do not want to burn any bridges. It's taken me a long time to get diangosed, and this is my local neurologist, the only neurology practice in the area that specializes in neuro-muscular diseases. He agrees I have MG even though I'm seronegative and his SFEMGs were inconclusive and my symptoms are atypical. So, this is a doctor I do not want to lose! I also think he's a good doctor, and we communicate well (except when he won't call me...).

How do I handle this situation? He was supposed to look into some things and call me back--that was two weeks ago. I left a message for him one week ago asking him to call. Nothing. I will call tomorrow and leave another message. Then what?
