Discovery Health
NO SUPPORT FOR CANCER PATIENTS

In June 2012 I was diagnosed with Cancer and ALL my teeth were removed under the guidance of the Branenburg Institute and the Oncology Professors at Sandton Oncology. I had to revieve 1 in 2 000 000 type treatment to treat my Cancer and it was all approved by Discovery. Now all of a sudden Discovery says they only approved to remove my teeth and not to put them back! This means they actaully broke contract as they approved a procedure via doctors that they knew they were not going to pay for and did not notify me as client or patient. I have all kinds of excuses and blatant misleading and time delays by the client centre and supposed people with authority. It seems as though they want me just to get tired of this and leave them alone. Meanwhile for 10 months I have not been able to eat properly and still cannot! The lady in charge of my case just keeps making promises to sort it out and still has not done anything for almost 2 months now. Apparently I am not the only Cancer patient with this problem, so I am going to use every media form now to fight this nationally and via government etc. All was good till this point, now this is just putting me back again! Not giving up!
