I'm hoping I can get a referral. I am hoping this email will show him I will need one (although I wrote on my paperwork that my pdoc requested it in the first place). Last night, when I told the peerson doing the evaluation that I needed to do an IOP, he said "you just want IOP? We like IOP requests," he said. Then he didn't even go through the evaluation, he just said he would just keep the same answers from my last visit as long as there have been "no major changes." Then he said, "I'll get you the IOP referral and you can be on your way (after 5 1/2 hours of waiting, of course)." That's when he came back and said "sorry, the IOPs are full and sent me home with nothing."
