One suggestion: Make sure your Primary physician does visits at the hospital (TVRH). I say this because, as a nurse, I get lots of complaints by patients who say something like "who's this guy (or gal)?). They end up with a hospitalist. And while I think many of the hospitalists are great doctors they are not YOUR doctor.

When I chose my PCP I made sure that he did rounds in the hospital (of course I already knew that since that is where I met him)
