Looking for a new PCP

[hahathor.livejournal.com]

Hi, I'm looking for a new primary care physician. I had one I really liked at Harvard Vanguard, but sadly, she passed on about a year ago. I'm not particularly satisfied with the new one. I'm on Tufts Health Insurance, and have a PPO plan, but would prefer someone in their network. Ideally, my doctor would be in or around Davis Square, but any place reasonably accessible from here by T or bike would be OK. I'm generally healthy, and don't have any specific needs, although I have a slight preference for a woman and a strong preference for someone who can talk to me about medical & science related things without talking down to me.

My PCP is Dr. Eleanor Hobbs at the Davis Harvard Vanguard clinic. I really like her and most of the staff there rxcept for one other doctor who's a total bitch.

Seconded on Dr. Hobbs. She is wonderful. She once called my roommate at home (she was not her PCP, just reviewed her over-the-weekend case and was concerned) to check on her, and when she found she was not better, offered to call her a cab to clinic.

She's the one I think is a total bitch. I had to see her once because everyone else was full, and in three minutes she went from "You have allergies" to "You have early stage fibromyalgia" to "Oh stop whining. You're just tired because you're fat."
