I won't mention any specific Doctors or offices. I have had 3 doctors and been in two facilities. I was very healthy when I came and still am. 3 of the doctors I had left because they were over worked and both facilities I found to really not care about "me" as a person or patient.
I moved from Maine, had the same physician for 25 years and know that can be duplicated but I am just thrown off at the treatment I have received. I was prescribed 5 new medications for something that was just a seasonal allergy - sent to sleep studies - and made to take drug tests for a "controlled" substance, a sleep aid. At home I saw a doctor once a year. When I got here it has been 6 x a year. Right now I don't want to see another physican - it is stressful
I am just confused - is it me or is this the system ?

If you’re very healthy why are you seeing doctor 6 times year ANd taking 6 new medication’s? You have the right to say no, I don’t need that. IMO drugs are pushed too much in too many cases. Sometimes the side effects are worse the symptoms you have?
I like my doctor at villages health till he flow the coop and I got kicked out of village health cause I wouldn’t join UHC for supplement I didn’t need just to stay in village health care.
IMO I also think women are prayed upon by health care providers over prescribing drugs.
