[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm tired of NP being offered as a substitute for a MD. [/quote] When it finally caused me problems due to the NP getting multiple things wrong, I left my pcp's practice for a concierge one. It was pretty clear that the practice was so busy I'd never see my actual doctor again except for my annual physical -- and that needed to be scheduled 6 months in advance. [/quote] I don’t have one doctor who uses NP’s. [/quote] You are fortunate then. All of the hospital-affiliated primary care practices have been using them for years, and the last several years it ahs become very hard to get in with the MD. In October my pcp's office told me the first available appointment with my doctor for an annual physical would be in April. Unless I wanted to see the NP, which could happen right away. Nope. For multiple reasons. [/quote]
