Primary doctor in Western Washington
Hello,
I am new to the forum and am 1 month into my 6 month monitored diet required by my insurance. I moved to Western WA about 2 years ago and have yet to find a primary care physician...I was wondering if anyone on this forum has any suggestions for a primary physician in the Bothell/Mill Creek area? I am a 26 year old male and just looking for someone I can be comfortable around, someone who has experience with obese patients.
Any info will help!
Don't know what insurance you have, but a lot of them have an 800 number on the back of the card that you can call to get a list of docs accepting patients in your area. The larger insurance companies also have websites that you can log on to and do a search for primary care physicians in your area as well.
Personally, I'd start with what Ms Batt said, if you already have a surgeon. If you don't have anyone at all yet, hit your insurance company up for a few names.
You can also ask friends and neighbors in the area who they recommend.
