I am really hoping that my cardiologist will have someone in mind when I see
him Monday. He suggested my present lung doctor, and I could not be more
pleased with him.

((((((((gwen)))))))i find the task of locating a new doctor, for myself,
tedious and discouraging. but, i've been thinking about this dilemma you
find yourself in, with respect to finding a new gp. maybe asking your
current doctors which one of them also has a specialty in internal medicine
might be the way to go. (most gp's/pcp's i've had were also internists.)
maybe you can double up with just one doctor handling two aspects of your
care? just a thought.

Ann, a gerentologist has an office not too far from me, but he isn't
taking new patients. At my age, I thought that would have been good for
me.

Gwen, I hope you find a great doctor. It's very hard around here to get
a PCP since a few years ago when the two major HMO's here said it was
mandatory to choose a doctor. Folks who hadn't been to a doctor in
years were forced to find one and the patient lists swelled so much that
many offices were, and still are, refusing to accept new patients.
