Hitting a wall with my HCM care

Are you being treated at an HCM clinic at a Center of Excellence. If not and one is within travel distance, perhaps you should try to see a cardiologist at such a center as the cardiologists at these HCM clinics see a large volume of patients and are far more experienced with how to treat HCM patients.

No , unfortunately I’m being treated (as a civilian) at a military hospital . And that’s not to say treatment at our facilities is by any means poor I just don’t feel like in this case I’m being treated right and wanted some insight from others who have experience. My options right now are bringing my concerns to light and requesting a second opinion and then from there I can potentially tell them I would like to be sent off post to a civilian provider in which case I would need to research the best cardiologist for my area who has more experience in this field. And I am not opposed to that at all because I have had great experiences with civilian providers .
