First, I was referred to Hughston Clinic. Was told that I would hear from you to schedule an Appt. (That was in Dec2025). I never heard from you. I called no less than three times, leaving 2 messages with no return call. I went back to my primary physician again. It was only then did I receive an appt. Upon arrival, I completed the forms and met the Dr. He met with the at most for 3 minutes and said yep, we will send you for an MRI. 3 Minutes. 4 business days later I still had not received a call from you about my MRI. Yet again I called. Finally got to speak to someone and I was told that yes, it does take some time to get approval. Ironically when she pulled up file she noticed it had already been approved and that I could just go ahead and call Jackson Imagery MYSELF. I wonder how long (If ever) they would have called me to let me know if I hadn’t called.
