My friend/co-worker relocated to PA and had to change insurances, doctors, dentists, pharmacies, etc nothing personal. She asked for her medical files to be transferred from Dr. Hamidi's office to her new doctor's office, however before she could get an appointment with the new doctor she ran out of a critical prescription medication. The pharmacy told her to contact Dr. Hamidi to authorize a refill so she called his office and made the request. He called her house and left a message that since she had transferred her files she should get the new doctor to give the prescription. She called him back the next day and explained that she had run out of meds and had not yet seen the new doc, but he was very rude and only agreed to give her a refill if she came back to his office. It was painful to see the hurt in her face. This came from someone that she believed cared about her well being, but apparently all he cares about is lining his pockets.
