| I just found out that Potomac Physicians Associates will be dissolving their practice this summer and all of their doctors will be moving to various concierge health practices. I now have to look for a new internist as I'm not interested in joining a pricey concierge group. Does anyone know why they are dissolving? |

| Oh no! How did you find this out? I’m a patient there. |

I received a weird email from my doctor informing me of their new practice so I got onto the PPA website and they have a message there that was posted a few days ago. |

There is no notice about this on the web site.
Are you referring to Potomac Physician Association practices in Chevy Chase and Bethesda? This would be... odd. |

| Is this a trend in medicine? Straight out of the pages of Applied Income Inequality 101? |

Associates. You would have gotten an email today. |

| I got the email today too, and, the Bethesda office has been poorly run for a while. While I liked my doctor, I cannot say anything nice about how the practice was run/managed. But I don't like the doc enough to pay for concierge - already pay a lot for health insurance! |

| I’m really disappointed and sad about having to find a new doctor. In hindsight, we should have probably seen this coming when they closed the office in Germantown. The doctors who are headed to Medical One have a much more reasonable annual fee ($200) than the other group ($1,800!). |

| Good Luck finding a new practice that is not concierge. I had a time of it when my son aged out of the Pediatrician. Everyone who had good reccomendations wanted an annual fee. My son is 20 and healthy. He might have 1 checkup a year. |

| Some docs of PPA are good, but some are not. Yet they all want 2k lock up fees? |
