My new PCP graduated from the same Medical School as Dr Besong (Ross Medical in Barbados).

After an exhaustive 3 day search a few months ago, I found that Mass General Hospital system, one of the world's best hospitals, has less only 5 MD's, who are accepting new patients for Primary Care (plenty of PA's & NP's).

(So far, my new PCP has only had to make one medical recommendation and he did way better than my last Dr, who went to Med School in India.)
