Male doctor suggestions?

[guxx.livejournal.com]

I recently moved to the Davis Square area and am looking for a primary physician to replace my current doc based in the south shore. My needs are simple: I'm looking for a male, middle-aged doctor with plenty of experience and affiliations to any of the larger area-hospitals (B&W, MGH, Faulkners, etc). Not a pill-pusher (I once had a doc who wrote me prescriptions every time I came in for a visit) and it would be great if he respects holistic medicines. Must be on the Tufts plan.

Otherwise, am flexible. Any suggestions? Thanks!

If you post an email address, I have a recommendation.

a number at the marino center on mass ave seem to fit the bill. and the whole place is geared towards the more holistic aspect.

Middle aged?

I'm pleased with Dr. Elvin at Cambridge Family Health North (near Porter Sq., right on Mass Ave.) but he's a youngish guy.

Yes! Very fabulous, the MArino Center on MAss AVe, walkable. My hubby is doctor-phobic, goes to see Guy Pugh, and loves him. They're all traditional doctors but very into holistic/alternative treatments. Everyone I've seen there is great.

Thanks for the thoughts on the Marino Center. I called them last week but the male docs are full, only the female docs are accepting new patients but I prefer a male doc.

So, I'm going to try Harvard Vanguard and will meet one of their docs next week.
