I haven't been to a primary care doctor in 15-20 years. I'm pretty healthy, but I do have a couple of things I'd like to discuss.
There's a health center that's just a step below a hospital within walking distance of my home, so I was hoping I could go there - but it figures that out of the 20 MDs they have for primary care, only 3 are female and none of them are accepting new patients. I have heard really negative things about one nurse practitioner there.
My area has a severe shortage of PCP. I may be out of luck given that a ton of new people just signed up for insurance to meet the Obamacare deadline and we didn't have enough doctors anyway.
