One office was old and smelled like mildew, the doctor was simply elderly. Our "gatekeeper", our Tricare assigned PMD. is almost incompetent and we're thinking about switching, my husband and I end up laughing under our breaths before we get out of the office. One hint: before you leave Maryland - have a check-up and get ALL your medicines refilled. You are going to have a real disapointment when you arrive here. I have. Sorry for the Gray Cloud.

Goodness, I've not had that experience in the 4 years we've been here. Had Tri-Care and now that we are 65, have Tri-Care for Life. Have a GP, Dermatologist, Urologist, and others accept Tri-Care and TCFL with no problem and all are local. I'm sorry you've encountered difficulties.
