Sold!



We have ourselves a new doctor! Don't laugh. This has been a long and ridiculously frustrating ordeal to find ourselves a PCP that has the following basic qualities we think are necessary in a doctor:
-Kindness
-Wisdom
-Actually seems like he passed medical school and retained most of the information
-Takes his time and explains things
-Washes his hands without having to be asked
-Looks you in the eye
-Is on time for his appointments
-Finds things in your medical history and puts the puzzle together with you
-Asks questions
-Writes legibly
-Is open to the idea of using a sinus rinse instead of antibiotics and other at home practices that I suggested and actually holds a conversation with me about it

Am I asking too much here, folks?!? It seems in south Jersey that I am, so that's why I'm extra grateful to have found such a gem. Or really, I should give credit to Michael who happened to schedule a physical with Dr. Roy instead of our usual Dr. Sherman and raved about him.

It's the little things in life, really.
