My PCP won’t fill out my medical clearance forms. What can I do?

Asked By:NonoLizzy in Sacramento, CA

Hello I have surgery scheduled for 2/20/19. Unfortunately I was changed to a new dr who I have never seen before and she is not willing to fill out my medical clearance forms. Are there any suggestions or alternative routes to take? I am an out of state patient and have already paid a down payment plus flights and accommodation to have surgery next month. In the mean time I am tying to get an appointment with my previous Dr. but there is no guarantee
