Yes.
Our family GP isn't on our list of options for our new list of insurance options
He rocks. He solicitous, compassionate, busy, and well (mostly) supported by the staff in his office. If we can't get a way to keep with him, it's start all over time with the new guy. Not looking forward to that.
So, so sorry about the snafu cluster flop you had at your dr's office, UT. I will say in my experience, it is important to get a dr you can trust and communicate with for medical advice. But (gatekeepers) all the other people in the office have to power to grant or deny my access to that valuable resource to me, and I nurture that relationship too. I know at least two of the nurses/front desk people by first name. That counts. Sometimes, it can substitute for actual facetime with the dr. But it always helps when I visit and epecially when I have a problem/urgent/question.
