Medical City Weatherford Stories
Oct 16, 2014, 4:54 PM
Weatherford Regional Medical Center: "Three times my doctor has requested mri and songrams for me and three time my doctor didn\t get the results. They only got the results after the doctor requested results and I physically went down to their medical records office, got the results and handcarried them to the doctor just to be sure my doc got them.
I was told by Weatherford regional medical center that even though my doctor made the request for the test, he still had to make another request to get the results.
