Alright so my original family doctor who signed for my pinks has retired. My new family doctor knows I use for medical purposes. But I recently went to see her to explain about the new program and that I will need her help signing me up for it, she says she doesn't feel comfortable with it. She claims she just doesn't know enough about it to feel comfortable writing a recommendation, and the whole grams per day thing she doesn't know how to prescribe. I've tried to reason with her, tried to educate her, begged her, but she won't sign for me. She said the best she can do is write me a letter to take to one of the clinics (she suggested greenleaf).
So fuck, I email greenleaf like 3 days ago and explain the situation. I get an email back later that afternoon, saying that they would like to set up an appointment to get me registered into the MMPR, what???
It then goes on to describe the only way to access is through a LP, and that they won't sign a script over 5g per day....WTF
They then go on to explain the prices and what it's going to cost me, however they do offer compassionate prices if you are on a low or fixes income. And then asks me if I would like to proceed.
So I email them back. Said something along the lines of, It's my understanding the MMPR is dead, and of August 24 the new program is the ACMPR. Just wanting to confirm this is the program I will be signed up under.
I didn't bother mentioning anything about the 5g per day bullshit, I had planned to just show the doctor where it clearly states on the HC website that there is NO daily restrictions.
I then ask what the clinic requires for proof of income to qualify for compassionate prices.
So I get an email back.
They said, yes sorry, the new program is the ACMPR. We are booking into Sept currently so by the time your appointment arrives we will have all the new paper work and everything figured out.
Then they said, the Licensed Producers require you Notice of Assesment to qualify for their compassionate pricing...uhh, No.
So I reply once more.
Thanks for getting back to me. I would like to proceed with booking an appointment. However I was asking about the compassionate pricing on my annual Greenleaf membership, not on LP product as do not plan on obtaining my medication through a licensed producer. The new program allows 3 avenues of access, I can produce my own, I can have someone else do it for me, or I can order through an LP. I believe I'll try and produce my own.
Anyway please let me know what dates your soonest appointment is.
Thanks.
.....And i haven't heard shit from them since. I was literally emailing back and forth with them. And as soon as I mentioned not going through a licensed producer they cut off contact.
Fuck those people...anyone know of a fair doctor? Pm me if need be.
It's about time we start a list of friendly doctors.
