    Disgruntled Vietnam vet.

    I have been in treatment at the Veteran's clinic for possible heart, carotoid artery, degenerative disc disease, osteoarthritis in my shoulders, COPD and other problems for about 2 months. I was admitted thru emergency to KMC on 9/25/09 for a possible heart attack and was there 4 days. KMC Dr's. would not sign a release to go back to work and referred me back to Dr. Yung Ping Wu at Veteran's. Dr. Wu would not sign a release to go back to work and would not give me a letter for my employment. He then made numerous appt's. to find out exactky what my health problems are. I have had labs, ultrasounds, cardiac appt's. etc.at Bks., Sepulveda and west L.A. I filled out SDI forms but Dr. Wu refused to sign them, KMC was suppose to. KMC said my primay care Dr. at Veteran's was suppose to.  Dr. Wu has refused several times to sign them. Home Depot can't let me return to work until I have a release from my Dr. He still refuses to sign anything. I went to West L.A to have a angiogram done and was there 3 days. They won;t sign anything either, it has to be my Bks. primay care physician Dr. Wu I told him this several times and he still refuses. in the mean time I cannot return to work and cannot receive SDI because nobody will sign the paperwork. I now have not had any income for 6 weeks. I called Stacy at Bks. Veterans to ask if she faxed the SDI paperwork back to KMC the she said she would do last week and she stated that she "faxed it over to San Joaquin, KMC or one of those hospital maybe Memorial". I told her that I was not in those other hospitals and she KNEW I was in KMC. She said she would fax it again. So far she has not done so. I'm tired of being lied to. They are being in my opinion unprofessional, unethical and what they are doing may be illegal. There's much more to my story that I will post later. Has anyone experienced this kind of problem before? Any advice? Please HELP!!!!
