Howdy,
I have been getting a little "irked" that I never see the doctor when I go in for appointments, I only get the PA. Is this normal? I have been in for three office visits, and in for three procedures,(cystoscopy, and two TURBTS). I only see the doctor for 2-5 minutes before the procedures and have never had a sit down talk about treatment or choices.....this doesn't seem normal to me. He just explains what he is going to do at that time. He always asks me if I have questions but when you have the tubes hanging out of your arm it's hard to have a long talk!
Maybe I am suppose to be then talking with my Primary Physician, which I really don't have one. What is normal on this? I have started looking around but in a small town there is only five to chose from and four of them work at the same place.
Thanks, Warren.
