Default pcp

All of my tests are complete and all I am waiting on is my pcp info so Weston can submit. Only problem is it has been 2 weeks since I hand delivered a letter to my pcp office telling them exactly what I need and the # they need to fax the info to. I submitted the letter on the 12 of Sept....as of Fri the 22 of Sept Weston Clinic has not recieved the onfo nweeded. For those that needed to get pcp papers, is this long a period normal? I am getting a little impatient: mad: with the staff. Any suiggestions on how I should approach the staff? My pcp is great it is just that his staff has been a little less than helpful it seems.

Your situation sounds familar. My PCP took a couple of weeks to dicate a simple letter that I virtually wrote for him - it was all about a very busy doc having time to sit down to dictate the letter and then of course his typing service has to type it up and then you have to be sure the office staff gets the letter to where it needs to go ..... staff can be damn frustrating and I ma sure they were sick and tired of me dropping by or calling to see if the letter was done - hang in there - stay on top of them - the wait is worth it!
