You : You deserve an explanation. You should call again and ask to speak to the office manager, tell him/her about your concerns and hopefully you will get some answers. A cancelled appointment could have been for many reasons, dont assume it was because your doctor no longer wants to see you. In the meantime your primary care provider will be able to manage your diabetes. Good luck.
