Love my doc and it's a quick trip on RC Pkwy - Dr. Zahalsky at AHC. I live in CC DC and it takes very little time to get there, he doesn't have long waits and the parking is cheap. Bright and very nice guy. I typically have gone to women but a friend recommended him and I like him a lot.

pp here, never mind, just realized someone pulled up an old thread.

Isn't he doing a concierge practice? We used to go to him but didn't want to do the concierge practice.

Kerry Gray on East-West Hwy. She works with her husband, also an internist. It is a walk- in, instead of appointment based. Takes BCBS.

I also use Sue Kanter. She's very clinical in her manner and takes a while (several visits) to warm up, but very thorough and helpful so I'll probably stick with her. Her office provides the forms for me to submit to insurance.

I also will only use female doctors, just out of habit and preference. Now I look for doctors who are slightly younger than me since my best doctor and dentist both retired on me.

Why female? What's wrong with male doctors?

I have the same issue. I had a wonderful doctor who decided she didn't like dealing with insurance companies so she branched out on her own and is out of network for all. It stinks. I want a woman doctor. Can anyone recommend a good female internist?

I see Sue Kanter in Bethesda (Rockspring area). She is a great doctor and was rated #1 in Bethesda magazine, but doesn't take insurance anymore. If you have insurance that covers out of network or are willing to meet your yearly deductable, she is worth it.

Says prefers a woman. Not must be a woman.

None of those are women.

Dr. Young -- can't think of his first name -- his dad had the practice before him

Alan Morrison on Conn Avenue

Try internal medicine center in ch ch. They have some wonderful docs and they do your bloodwork in house

I'm looking for an internist in Upper NW/CC/Bethesda area in a non-concierge practice; prefer a woman. Thanks for your recommendations!
