Missing Answers

In my quest for information, I had asked two questions to the hospital staff
1. What is the procedure for treating suspected PEs at Edward

2. Procedure for getting medical records modified.

I did not receive answer to either of those in the mail. Also as I was told that I should make a complaint with the Department of Professional Regulation about the doctors. Maybe thats the next step

Heard back from Patient Advocate

So I finally did receive a letter from the patient Advocate:

1. My letter has been forwarded to Vice President of Medical Affairs

2. As mentioned before, the case was forwarded to Peer Review Committe and their recommendation is confidential

3. As doctors as not employees of hospital, I am encouraged to speak to my doctors about my plan of care

But I have already told you that doctors are not ready to talk. Vimi Bajaj tried to torture me physically when I asked for my records And the cardiologist who treated me with anticoagulants Stanley Clark did not visit me once it was determined that no PE\DVT exists. I was sent a different cardiologist to inform me about the same.
