i'm considering going to a new physician, and i asked yi about dr. o

answer was 12 with lines 3 and 5 changing to 56.

because i haven't been able to find someone i really like, i have been somewhat of a wandering patient for a few years. maybe that is the 56. so i wonder if 12 is suggesting that i have now found a place to stop, that i will not need to continue traveling through healthcare providrs? what do you think?

Millie, I personally wouldn't be happy to see 12.3 in a medical situation and line 5 suggests the need for caution. So, I'd say approach this doctor with your head on straight and your eyes wide open.

Choosing a dr. because you like him may be the wrong reason to choose one. Finding someone you have confidence in and can bring wisdom and credentials to adress a problem is the criteria. Good luck in the new year. Perhaps if you rephrase your question??

good thoughts. for now i've decided to hold off on seeing this particular physician. i agree that the lines don't lookd great. as for liking a doc, i'm more interested in someone that has the bedside manner & skills to really HEAR me and relate. it seems like a lost art in medical science. thanks for offering your ideas here. i really appreciate it.
