Can a doctor's office tell me I can't see another doctor in the same office?

More details to this question:
My doctor stopped taking insurance. There are other doctors in this practice that do take insurance. I asked if I could switch to one of them and I was told I couldn't. Is this legal?

You are free to see any doctor or care provider that you are able to see. I do not think another doctor can prevent you from treating with another doctor. I would just make your next appointment with someone else in his practice or leave his practice all together and seek treatment else where. Best of luck.
