What a joy to get the voice mail message that the new primary care doctor had checked with my oncologist and agreed to take me on. What a disappointment to find out the June 3 is the earliest date I can be seen! But at least I am in like Flynn. I find this medical group to be thorough and good at following through - at least so far.
They are mailing me a medical history form and other paperwork which I am to fill out and mail back so the doctor will have a chance to read it before meeting me! That's novel. She wants to become familiar with my case, to think of what sorts of care may be needed. How refreshing. Far from the doctor who doesn't have time to even look you in the face during the short ten minutes you get with them.
We shall see how it unfolds. At least she has a geriatric specialty and will be well directed to assist as I age, provided I get the opportunity to do that!
