I made an appointment to see a doctor about a month ago & had the appointment scheduled for yesterday. The office accidentally canceled my appointment, and now I am not able to receive a medication that is really important to me right now.
Is this malpractice?
This appt was to receive a second opinion within the office, as the previous doctor was hesitant to prescribe me something but I was told that this doctor would prescribe me something.
I don't have any standing prescriptions from the office, but I have been receiving treatment here for 2 months.

No. It's not malpractice, because there has to actually be practice before it can be MALpractice.

No. Call the doctors office and ask them to call in a prescription to the pharmacy you use.*

Not malpractice, certainly, but call them up and have an emergency supply of your meds phoned into the pharmacy so you can get enough to tide you over until you have your appointment.

Not Malparactice.

But your doctor won't prescribe the meds. If this one does without seeing you as some of the other answers suggest that would be malpractice.

Seriously?

A doctors office cancelling an appointment?

MALPRACTICE??

Seriously?

No, it's not malpractice, it doesn't involve errors in your diagnosis or treatment. Just a clerical error.

Were you hoping to sue for a fortune? Tough luck . . . .
