Guest guest Posted October 12, 2004 Report Share Posted October 12, 2004 I called the pediatrician's office about the referral that was supposed to be mailed but I hadn't received yet. It sounds like a referral for Cranial Tech has been approved but I need to see a specialist first. The nurse said no sense in mailing the approved referral since she'd approached it incorrectly. Hopefully I'll have some kind of paperwork by Friday when Nicolas sees the pediatrician for his checkup. This is all turning out to be very interesting -- the ped said he was sending us to a specialist to look at the flat spot on Nico's head but didn't elaborate. It's only after looking on the internet and joining this group that I can see where he's headed. Also interesting that, while he told me he thought everything would be fine and Nico's head would probably resolve itself on its own -- now we have an approved referral to CT?
