Getting nowhere with current Hematologist

Similar problems trying to get my hemo oncology office to respond to anything. I lost questions thru my e-chart, and they fall into a black hole. I would ask your PC if he could refer you to the far-away specialist for an eval and coordinate care through the PC. Your PC may not want to, but worth a shot.

Sadly there are many hematologists that have no clue what they are doing from my sons experience.. Did she have a diagnosis before treatment? My son is worse off too... I feel helpless and angry to watch him being almost as if experimented on.. please find someone else

I agree. You have to get a little snarky sometimes to advocate for yourself, unfortunately. I’m a retired RN & if I so much as get a little put out with a Dr, I won’t go back. And I have no problem telling the new Dr the problem with the previous one.
However, I live near Houston, so I have many drs I can ‘move on to’.
You should not have to live like this. Get your PCP to refer you the far away Dr; you deserve a second opinion at the very least!
Blessings & keep us posted please.
