Hi @Deanne
Fantastic news that you are cancer free after 5 years - this gives all newbies real hope and faith !
Oh, that receptionist sounds such a precious soul ! What a load of crock about the ongoing referrals. I originally had an indefinite one then asked for that to be changed and have had no issues with it at all. My only problem was that I have relocated and my original doctor apparently has to be sent a report - oh well, his filing cabinet will be filling up.
I hope you told her that if you keep going there that keeps her in a job ? Maybe she needs to be told how upsetting her actions are. I find some of them are "Little Gestapos" - it is their sense of power.
March on proudly, enjoy your happiness.
