>>So, I asked them to tell me what the maximum they might bill would be. And, they kicked me out of the office.

There are of course shitty doctors, but playing devil's advocate for a minute: you were arguing about theoretical billing scenarios while there were other patients in line waiting to be seen. So it's not exactly surprising that he got fed up and kicked you out.

wrong. I was asking about a specific procedure that I made an appointment for. They gave me a form -- after I got to the office -- which said I agreed to pay any amount they decided to charge. When I asked for clarification, they refused to quote me a price.
