Guest guest Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 I could possibly get a referral from my current Rheummy, but he's " out of pocket. " I talked to his nurse yesterday & she said that they'd probably be sending out a flier next week... So I guess I'll hang tight until I finally hear something... I'll keep you posted~ Thanks, Pat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 Pat, The best I can help at the moment is to get on Yahoo / Yellow Pages / Austin ,Tx / Health & Medicine / Doctors / Rheumatology / Select a doctor and read his reviews under " more information " . here is the URL http://yp.yahoo.com/py/ypResults.py? & & city=Austin & state=TX & uzip=78701 & country=us\ & msa=0640 & cs=4 & ed=7Q9A.K1o2TyICNB.1UoAdjMrQ5XosWSSg.8fOqApGRQn & stp=y & stx=9606663\ 7 I myself have made an entry on Yahoo for my Doctor , who has done me a fine job.. I Keep forgeting to ask him about Pickrell MD...sorry. I think It would be a wise thing to do, that is, if all of us jump to the Yahoo yellow pages and write a review for our Doctor. That would give us the chance to see Him / Her if problems arise while on vacation... your thoughts guys???? Alan... changing doctors Dear Ones, I am in a quandary. The Rheumatologist that I have been seeing for the past 17 years is now, himself, very ill. It doesn't look as if he will be returning to his practice. How on earth will I be able to find someone else that will understand this disease? Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 Pat, I would start by askign his office for referrals. They tend to refer to other docs they trust and the new doc should hopefully regard your record with your old doc in a little bit more esteem if they are associates. After that, it's a word of mouth guessing game. Houston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 Does your current RD know anyone he could refer you to? It's got to be hard to have to look for a new doctor when the one you have has been able to help & understand the disease. Chris Milligal@... wrote: Dear Ones, I am in a quandary.
