New Doctor?

A funny thing happened to me at my routine OB check-up on Tuesday. My OB doctor is Dr. Buckovic, she was on vacation so I saw Dr. McMillan. Dr. McMillan was excellent and very friendly and everything was just fine with me and the baby. As I left, I went to the check-out window to schedule my next appointment. The receptionist asked if I wanted to see Dr. McMillan again. I told her that I only saw him because my doctor, Dr. Buckovic, was on vacation and that I need to be scheduled with her. The receptionist looked at me funny and said, "Vacation? Dr. Buckovic doesn't work here anymore!" I said, "What?" She then repeated herself and said that my OB doctor doesn't work there anymore. I asked her when someone was going to let me know that I no longer have a doctor? She snapped at me and said, "I know for a fact that Dr. Buckovic was telling her patients she was leaving." I told her that no one told me. I then told her that I was fine with seeing Dr. McMillan for the rest of my pregnancy. I couldn't help but laugh at the whole situation. I mean, I am 28 weeks for crying out loud and no one told me that my doctor was leaving!?!? Oh well. Dr. McMillan was excellent and I think I will be happy with him.

I am so glad you ended up having Dr. McMillan! I loved him! He did a great job with my c-section also.
