1 /5 S A: As a patient of multiple years, I contacted Dr. Fox regarding the recent Emergency Rule 64ER22-8, regarding Section 381.986(4)(f)1., F.S. allowing a qualified physician to request an exception to the daily dose amount. The MMU website states that patients must contact their doctor to ask about this, and so I did.
Dr. Foxs response to my inquiry was to respond to my inquiry to tell me that "This is exactly why the state just severely restricted the amounts I can prescribe.", which seems more than a little backward to me, along with bizarrely victim blaming. He then tried to pass me along to an assistant to answer further questions, who never responded to the e-mail that I sent.
But Dr. Fox responded further, to clarify that he disagreed that there exists a history and culture of violence toward disabled people. The reference points here that he does not feel have credence to demonstrate this include Germanys forced abduction and euthanization of disabled children via Aktion T4, along with recent governor Rick Scotts failed welfare recipient drug testing scheme to line he and his wifes pockets that cost taxpayers $1.5 million, among other harm. This sort of brazen and forward ableism is a deeply concerning and dangerous thing to hear from a purported medical professional.
He continued on to tell me how I needed help, in a very belittling way, in place of actually speaking to me like a person, or much at all. He finally suggested for me to contact the MMU, as if I hadnt originated there in the first place, leaving me even more lost and concerned than when I had originally contacted him. I would advise against doing business here unless you feel okay with receiving such abuse in response to doing what the State directed you to do in the first place.
