Patient
I went to see Dr. Maria Jan for a physical and I asked her about some spots in my skin, she gave me a diagnosis and told me that this goes away in time and that it is normal in women my age... I told her that just to make sure I would like an expert opinion from a dermatologist she said it wasn't necessary. Before I left the office that day I asked the nurse to remind her that I still want the letter of recommendation. One week passes by and the spots on my skin are darker and I have more... I sent an E-mail over patient portal requesting a recommendation and she responded back that a dermatologist isn't indicated at the moment. I requested again for the letter and still have no response 3 weeks post. I am a new patient of hers so I Don't have that much experience but this shouldn't cost her anything to refer me to a specialist for me to get peace of mind and maybe a treatment.
