Title: Frustrated
Post by: gregory on November 09, 2010, 09:48:15 PM
I am frustrated with my Davita. I tried for 3 weeks to get a chest x-ray and pnemenonia shot for my transplant work-up. I finally went to my family doctor and got it done in 2 days. They probably don't won't to lose my medicare money. They also are taking carnitor off their list of medications, it has helped me a lot. I was told there was no scientific evidence it helps. Of cource they won't admit it the cost.

Davita as your dialysis center does not have to work your transplant up, YOU DO! I have never had the center make an appointment for anything for me or even volunteer to do it.
