All is well until your doctor leaves the country. No one calls to advise me or tell me I need to reschedule. I CALL THEM and say "hey I didn't get an appointment confirmation phone call." I'm told "oh Dr Chiang is out of the county. We rescheduled all of his appointments and sent in refills for everyone" I said well I wasn't called." She said "ok let's reschedule you and I will send a message to him about your medication refills. But the last message from him said he was unavailable" I said how can he possibly leave the country and not refill ALL of his patient's medications. And here it comes. The LOOPHOLE.... All Dr Chiang's medications are as needed. So I look at my bottles which are all empty and it says take twice daily "AS NEEDED"for severe pain.So he prescribes addictive medications. LEAVES THE COUNTRY to leave his patients in pain and sick from opiate detoxification. And could care less about the patient. I wonder how many patients of his are right now sick like me. Nausea. Vomiting. Sweats. Chills. Diarrhea. All that For a 56 yr old woman in severe daily pain. I called the pharmacy 3 days in a row. And. NOTHING. I call Avala spine and inquire again about my medication and I am told " he hasn't responded to my message yet. And there you have it in a nutshell. Patient comes last when the Dr plans a trip out of the country. And YES I ASKED was it a vacation trip. I was told YES. SO I HOPE HE ENJOYS HIS LEISURE TRIP. read more
