Pamela H in Texas Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 where a doctor went? My son has seen the same endocrinologist since he was almost two years old. I recently found out that the doctor left the practice. Hopefully he sends a letter saying where he went like our last ENT did. Anyway, but I was wondering if there is any way to find out where he may have gone. My son has severe anxiety and has just now gotten to the point that he is half human during and after the doctor visit. This doctor has also seen him through multiple placements and knows his history, us, etc. I *really* do not want to give this doctor up! Any idea on how to find him?

Catwoman Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 They won't give you that information at the former practice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catwoman Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 I was just thinking -- have you done Google searches for him, or called the hospitals with which he was affiliated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catwoman Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Maybe I could start a new thing and be the next Mark Zuckerberg! Kids College=Paid for! Sounds like a plan!!! Let me know when it's up and running so I can sign up and tell a bunch of big impressive-sounding lies about myself to impress the people I haven't seen since high school. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether or not he can send a letter will depend on his contract with his former practice. Some don't allow it, with the hopes of keeping the patient with the practice.

momacacia Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Maybe someone already mentioned this, but what about calling the hospitals he worked with (whatever that is called). I would think he still had "rights" to practice there even if he changed practices or went out on his own. ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EKS Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Did the office refuse to tell you or did you not ask them? When a doctor leaves a practice, the patients stay with the practice (because it's a business). Many times the office won't give any information.

T'smom Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 When a doctor leaves a practice, the patients stay with the practice (because it's a business). Many times the office won't give any information. Nt necessarily. When our ped changed practices, he sent us a letter saying where he was going and why. We followed him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ottakee Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 I found out where our beloved neurologist went through the psychiatrist. I guess they sent her a letter telling where he was but not the patients. Google is also helpful. We had the same situation. He knew my complex kids and they trusted him. It worked out in our favor as he moved to a general neurology practice so he can keep my girls on even though they are 18 - 19 now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artichoke Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 According to the Tx Medical Association the practice must tell you where he went if you specifically ask. It's considered unethical to withhold the information from you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
