My wife and I make appointments every 6 months to see our family doctor and have been doing this eve since we HOOKED UP about 30 years ago... and while that practice is a good one to get into, it becomes redundant when for someone like myself, I am seeing medical specialists 2-3, sometimes 4 or 5 times a month... and each time I see a specialist, blood work is taken and analyzed as well as my vital signs. When I see my Cardiologist, an EKG is performed which is not performed when I see my family doctor. Additionally, I undergo alternating CT and PET scans every 3 months which is not something that my family doctor can do either...
Right now, my family doctor is more or less a data collection center for all my medical activity because everything that I do medically or ever medical specialist I see sends notes and test results to my family doctor. After 14 years, one would think that I would have my own filing cabinet drawer... LOL
To date, I have regular and standing appointments with a/an:
- Oncologist
- Cardiologist
- Urologist
- Dermatologist
