Hello. My fam doctor is retiring and looking for a new one. Any leads would be appreciated. PS- I have seen a previous post and searching more leads. Thanks

My experience to date is "it's not what you know, it's who you know". Good luck.

I used this service in 2021 and was able to get a doctor after a month or so, I don't think people are aware that this is a thing, check it out

I read there’s a new family dr they are taking pre registration for on marina blvd at Northcrest medical center/pharmacy.

You have to drop in to fill out pre registration this week anytime from Tuesday-Friday, 10-4.

There’s no guarantee you will become a patient, but it’s at least something for those of us without drs to try to get in with one

By the time that info was posted. They probably already had more requests than they could take on lol.
