I don’t think you’ll have any luck suing a doctor for wanting to check up on you or getting authorization from GP instead of automatically refilling meds. I think you’d have a better luck suing doctors for allowing endless automatic refill without ever seeing a patient.
I’ve never heard of doctors being required to provide legal reasons for wanting to see a patient or wanting them to see GP. Doctors could require you to see them or for your to see a GP or a specialist every that often for refilling meds. Once a year or once in three months or whatever. Sure it’s inconvenient. But it’s not something you can sue for. I mean you can but you won’t win as it’s not an extraordinary request
I do agree that not prescribing antibiotics for bronchitis sounds all wrong. That’s why you need a reliable GP. Going to different urgent cares don’t get you the results you need. Some urgent cares are great but overall they always say ok here is something to get you through till Monday and now go see your primary doctor
