I just moved my kids to a new pediatrician, filled out the paperwork to transfer records at the new docs, they sent them in and the old dock says, quote “we won’t send anything until a check for $30 for each child is sent to us and the check clears”

The ironic thing is that we would have stayed with the first pediatrician and have been with her since the birth of our children, she moved to a new clinic which is 25 miles from our home….. We do not owe or have ever owed he any $
