Communication: Communicating over the phone with your doctor is not always easy or simple. If it is a serious lab or pathology report, often the doctor will call. However, not always. Okay for you to call the doctor, report the message you received to the receptionist and get the information. Don't wait for the doctor to call back. It takes both the patient and the doc to have that relationship. Be well.
