"My New Doctor"

(as a service user),

My husband and I were in for a Meet and Greet, with a new doctor! I did have a slight eyebrow raise when we were both ushered in together, but okay about it for the most part. He was very impressed with how “ beautiful”, we looked! Well I must say that felt okay for our egos! In retrospect I believe he liked that we were looking fit and not decrepit at all. I made sure to inform him that I believe we work as a team and I’m not comfortable with being prescribed medication for every little thing! He seemed to agree. One thing, I felt, he was concerned about was the time was used up within 10 minutes as he kept looking at his watch. I reminded him that we were two separate appointments but he seemed not to care about that. He gave intake sheets a big check mark of acceptance and asked us to stop at the receptionist to make an appointment!

Hello WrenK@96,

Thank you for sharing your experience with finding a new family doctor. Your voice is important and your willingness to share can help other feel empowered to do the same.

While we strive to notify all service providers mentioned in a story, unfortunately, the provider was not included. Your feedback still holds great value. As it can empower other to share their health care experiences.

Thank you for making a difference.

Warmly,

The Care Opinion Moderation Team
