My only disappointment was that I was not informed of the result of a gallbladder test that I had at the Hospital. I went to the Medical Records Department and obtained the report and learned that my Gallbladder was only functioning at 3%. I did mention this to Dr. Bedford and he expressed concern that it happened for which I was pleased. I understand how things can happen. So in this case no worries. I am just happy I was able to get access to the report on my own.
