That is interesting about eye doctors not needing all the liability insurance,maybe just the specialists that perform eye surgeries need big insurance plans. Everything seems to be about how much money people can get from other people! Unlike when our old doctors truly liked helping make us better and not shipping us off to specialists! My own primary care doctor no longer does hospital visits to his patients-you get strange doctors to care for you-I find this just appalling but what is one to do when most doctors are now doing this for insurance reasons?

We "belong to" a clinic, and our primary care doctors also do not do hospital visits. Presumably that is so they'll be more available in the office, and although I can see the reasoning behind that, I'm guessing a lot of it has to do with insurance. I do appreciate specialists, though. If my husband is going to have back surgery in March, I'm happy it's going to be done by someone who specializes in just that and not by someone who does one or two a year.

1. We just started getting charged 1.10 to fill each pill bottle per time it is filled. This started 1/1/11. But know there is one crazy woman in my drug store and i know she treats every body mean like!!!!! One week my doc upped my Dilantin and the next month came and she said i needed to contact my doc to get a new refill. She never see's me but she make's it just as hard on me as she can. Day before yesterday she called me at my home to tell me my 10 mg. pottassium pill had been changed to two per day meaning 20mg's per day. But i take a pill to try and calm my bladder down from spasm's??? Well Pottassium pills and bloadder pills attact each other and my belly gets the brunt of it all. Pain after pain after pain constantly!! So i questioned her about these two pills so she told me that if you put a 10 mg pill in water it is less powerful. So i said yes but i am supposed to take the pill's 12 hours apart and she said yes but if you put them in water they are not so strong!! Do you think i believed her? Wpuld you believe her?? I called my doc and he will call me back. Plus i called my RN and she thanked me for being smart enough not to fall for that BULL CRAP!!! A few weeks ago i saw a piece in the news paper about people calling the elderly with all kinds of scams of today so i am very carefull!! 2. Viola. >
