QUESTION

Obgyn dropped my girlfriend for no reason.

Asked on Nov 14th, 2019 on Medical Malpractice - Florida
More details to this question:
So my girlfriend and I are expecting a baby boy, we have been going to an obgyn in the orlando fl area since we found out, recently I left them a google review that was less than favorable because of the bad experience we had with the nurse that does the sonograms, she was a little rude & dry. It was more so of a constructive criticism review, well fast forward a week and they dropped my girlfriend from their practice altogether, the reason they gave was because they no longer took her insurance. Our problem is that she is now due in a little over two months and nobody wants to take her because shes so far along her pregnancy and also because she is considered a high risk pregnancy. As a result, she has gotten super stressed out and the emotional strain is adding additional distress to the pregnancy. I called the practice the other day pretending to be a new customer to see if they take her insurance and they told me that they do, they are also still listed as a provider, legal options

Thats what happens when you post bad reviews about people. There is no real legal remedy as she is not in medical distress, and physicians are generally not required to continue care absnet some emergency situation. In the future if you want to give constructive criticism - speak to the doctors or clinic manager directly - not in a public post.
