Just to post a followup here...

A few months ago, an associate of mine had a bad experience with this doctor, too. Something about a prescription needing to be rewritten due to a dosage problem or unavailability of the dosage the doctor originally prescribed. The doctor demanded my associate come in and pay another office visit fee to get the new Rx. She refused, and then asked for a copy of her medical records. The doctor would not cooperate, so she reported the doctor to the local medical board.


And just yesterday...
My associate and I both received a Dear Patient letter from that dermatologist informing all patients that the practice has closed, and the doctor is going to work for Kaiser.

My response is... NO WONDER!
