Wow, that’s a tough situation, but it is what it is. So you need a strategy when you go in there to not let it bother you. First, you may be feeling overly sensitive and emotional because of all that’s going on, that’s perfectly normal, so tell yourself its not that she wants to be rid of you, she might just be having a bad day or had a fight with her husband, it doesn’t necessarily have to be about you. Besides that, all you really need her for is to write your prescription(s) that the other doctor is going to recommend, and the other doctor sounds very thorough, so that’s good news.

The thing about the receptionist refusing to schedule your June appointment isn’t really that surprising. Lots of doctors in the US will only open their appointment schedule for patients a month or two at a time. The receptionists response saying “lets see what happens” makes me wonder what she knows that you don’t know yet, like maybe your doctor is moving or something like that, or maybe she means that she wants to give the doctor as much time as needed to read the report, so she’ll wait until they have the report to see how busy the doctor is at that time and how long she needs to read the report. If she schedules your appointment now, she’s locking the doctor into a deadline of when she has to be ready.

Hope this helps… :-)
