Thank God!!

A pat on the back to me. After calling the old Dr's, which I LOVED (the facility is amazing, the midwives are wonderful, they use technology, and they're NICE to you) and they said that they are 100% IN NETWORK and that they're sorry for the misinformation I was given by United Healthcare. We triple checked with their financial rep and they ARE definitely IN network, so there should be NO reason why I can't see them.
After talking to my principal about the whole ordeal, she said "THAT'S MY DOCTOR, OF COURSE THEY'RE IN NETWORK!" She advised me to call United and give them a good ear full whenever I have the strength/mindset to do so because they really need a good one! What I went through with that other Dr. yesterday was hell. I told everyone what he had said and their mouths were on the floor. I even called my mother in law last night and told her about it and she was appalled. She also advised me to call United and complain about his practice and procedures and bedside manners because they DO NOT have to pay him if I was in any way offended by the services I received by him. They can even set up a case to question his entire practice! Good thing to have someone in the medical field in the family! haha

The Veranda immediately scheduled me for ASAP which for them was Tuesday for an ultrasound, bloodwork and full history. I will be exactly 10 weeks and we will then schedule the NTScan for 2 weeks after then :) Yay!! I am SO relieved. I swear I feel like a weight has been lifted off of my shoulders.
