We are grateful to have him. If I give his name I'll never get an appointment. Sorry!
I go to the same bunch of doctors! (If yours has a wife also in the same practice, then we have the same doctor!)

He hasn't urged me not to get a shot anywhere other than his office, but I'm also a new patient (first year), and he can see from my medical records that I am VERY responsible and conservative when it comes to my health.

I'm of the age that - if I don't take excellent care now, it'll bite me in just a few more years. My "last chance" to do it right, more or less.

I'll be getting the regular shot, in early September. I'll get it at Publix, and make bank on that $10 gift card!
