Hi all,
I know questions about PCP near Davis are coming up all the time, this time I want to ask if someone knows about doctors who
1) are good
2) have evening/weekend hours
3) are near Davis
4) are female.
I'm looking for a new doctor and so far I tried to schedule an appointment with Dr. Fishman, but unfortunately she herself doesn't hold any evening hours, and the latest her nurse practitioners can do a physical exam is 6.15 (and I can't make it back from work till 6.30 at the earliest).
Looks like Dr. Rachel Berger at Harvard Vineyard has evening/weekend hours but I couldn't find any reviews on her. Is anyone seeing her?
I just started a new job and for a number of reasons to take time off right now to see a doctor would be really hard.
I really appreciate your help. Thanks!!
UPD: How about Debra Bershel?? Anyone saw her?

I used to see her. Very dismissive, cold and judgmental. Hated her.

Wow, I'm so glad that wasn't just me! I saw her once years and years ago and had exactly the same sense, so I switched PCPs right away.

I'm assuming you're talking about Rachel Berger? She's my current PCP, simply because I'm too lazy to do the legwork and switch, but I agree with this statement entirely. Even though I, like, NEVER make appointments with her, I feel like a hypochondriac whenever I finally do and bring anything out of the ordinary to her attention.

Yep. I stayed with her for the same reason. She acted like I was lying when I told her about side effects I was getting from medication- I told her it made me gain 7 pounds in 2 days and she said I just ate more. (I had been on this med multiple times and this always happened and weight went away when meds were done).

Aren't all doctors pretty much like this?

Gosh, generalize much?

Oh. This must be that 'trolling' I've heard so much about.
