Hello,
I just wanted to put in my two cents worth. I wanted to go to see Dr.
Albee. I have heard good things about him and had a friend who met him
at a conference. I sent in my records, and got back a reply, he said
that he could help. I got a response back from Donna, but it did take a
while to get a response back from Dr. Albee's office itself, about my
insurance, it was though, near the holidays. My HMO would pay for the
hospital, but not the doctor's fees. It was too much money out of
pocket, and I had to find another doctor who accepted my insurance. They
did put a cap on what my out of pocket expences would be, but still, it
was just too much money for us.
Good luck
