This is one of my problems in that I CANNOT reach my pulmonologist. I go to Northwestern and both the pulmonologist and infectious disease doctors are useless. MyChart messages and phone calls are ignored. Always. I previously posted that unfortunately for my own health I am going to have to start over at the University of Chicago.

I just read again what you said above.
I have come to understand that doctors are so busy with all that is required of them that in many cases they rely on their nurse(s)/staff to respond to most types of questions. My doctor does respond to me on MyChart, my local PCP, after each test result and the nurse(s) most often with my general questions.
You might make an appointment with both doctors to ask your questions and then approach the subject of communication and ask about what one should expect in an answer to your questions asked on MyChart. It may be that the staff is not doing what the doctor expects of them. ?????
One needs to know why no responses...... is it our approach and types of questions, amounts of questions or is it that they are not doing their part.????
I know that my local pulmonologists office, that I quit going to and seeing, was bad about answering my MyChart questions when I sent messages and as well other types of communications I gave to the office to give to him.
