You answered your own question……talk to other healthcare professionals. My wife was one and investigated the background and education. Referral buy other healthcare professionals is best. Then if you get one that is not good, drop them and find another. That goes for the healthcare system &, insurance. Utilize only the doctors for initial visits, nurse practitioners next. PAs only after you trust the Doctor.
