While he was excellent, came from medical schools and facilities I grew up with, we both agreed I needed to just stick with the 2 specialist I currently use.

Made my first dermatologist appointment, who admitted his services weren’t needed. Call if I notice something out of the ordinary. Apparently my skin is in great shape.

I don’t want to be locked into a plan with someone who doesn’t understand rare hereditary medical issues.
That’s weird that ANY Dr would say his services aren’t needed! Your PC, if you use him properly, will manage your care and know everything about you. He can guide you in the directions you need to go. Specialists only know their specialty! I’ve heard others speak as you did and they are no longer here. Best wishes to you
