So my GP realized that this is out of his scope and sent a referral to a Psychatrist, I returned a call but the appointment was given to someone else. The woman said she would talk to the Pdoc on friday, this was a wednesday. I never got a call back and I waited a week and a half and called her. She told me she couldn't find the referral but sometimes the Pdoc takes them to review and he was in Vancouver at the moment.
So I see my GP on Thursday and he asks me have I heard anything from Pdoc, I told him the above and told me to call back again. I did today, she still could not find the referral and wanted the GP's number to have it faxed over again.
Anyway she calls me back 10 minutes later and says "Pdoc reviewed the referral and feels he can not help me!!!!" The referral was sent back upstairs to I believe she used the word triage, this is a hospital setting.
I am to call this other extension if I don't hear from anyone in the next week. Here I am thinking I am on a waiting list, that is supposed to be short and with a Pdoc that also works with people will coronic illness. I have type 2 diabetes. Now I am in not sure what to think when a Psychatrist feels he can't help me.........
