I am wondering if I could use a doctor that one of you has had, pay the out-of-network insurance fees and use my local primary as a liaison as to not have to travel for every appointment. I need to redo my signature line, but Dr. Clavel is recommending a 3 level adr, if anyone thinks of a doctor I might approach please let me know.

Todd that is terrible news. 
What did he say? - I just am not going to follow you as a patient if you do this? He won't prescribe pain meds etc.?
