When I was there I had a "head doctor" who coordinated all from the different departments and doctors etc. that I saw. I had an initial visit with my 'head doctor' first and a second visit on the last day.
I think a great deal of who you might be scheduled with depends upon their schedule and what is available. Sometimes it is probably the luck of the draw with who you are assigned to.
Some people were/are lucky enough to get a consultation with a/the doctor at the end of each day, I did not have that opportunity. It would make it a great deal easier to digest and understand all if given the opportunity to review all results at the end of the day or at least every other day rather than on the last day of visit having to go over EVERYTHING and try to digest and understand the results.
Thank goodness for me nearly all the tests were fine.

Barbara, if it is like other multi-disciplinary facilities, those patients whose cases are most complex, or who are sickest, get more "face time" with the practitioners and their staffs.
