[quote=Anonymous]I've had a different PCP every year for the last five years, no kidding. Due to moving twice, a new job, and switching health insurance plan. It sounds very unsettled but that's what it was. So I know the frustration. But at the same time, most of the PCPs were broadly useless. I always went in for the annual physical and to establish a relationship with what I'd thought would be my PCP going forward. I tried to find smaller doctors with independent practices like the ones I remembered from childhood. In reality they were indifferent, the quality of the physical ranged from useless to moderately ok. After a few visits I realized it was really only the labs they cared about (and even with one PCP I had to push to have the labs ordered). I am switching to a new health insurance next year (again!) so will be on the hunt for a new PCP but this time I will be realistic and just sign up with a hospital group. [/quote]
