My nurse, Mary Brown, that I have had take care of me multiple times is an absolute godsend! She is really an amazing individual! I have had numerous issues with my primary care provider regarding my blood pressure and tachycardia medication. When Mary was taking my vitals, I made a comment to her about how I was unable to afford one of my prescriptions because my doctor would not switch it to one covered by my insurance. I had been having this issue since May and was becoming frustrated due to being on a limited income. I live month to month, so even a small expense is big to me. I had even tried having my pharmacy contact my doctor's office to switch the prescription without any luck.
After my appointment with Mary, I arrived home to a phone call from my doctor's office informing me that my doctor had changed my prescription to one covered by my insurance and had sent it to my pharmacy. I was shocked that this happened out of the blue! But it hadn't happened out of the blue, I found out Mary had sent a message to my doctor about her concerns over my vital signs and the issue with my medication. Mary, thank you so much!
