I have asked Dr.y about getting test done, and about seeing specialist. I check at the desk and am told you are getting a referral. Only once has this worked out. Most of the people I work with had to change physicians last year due to insurance. so we all started with Dr. Y. but most have changed to someone else. She is a really nice person to talk with. But just not happy with how the set up goes there. With my insurance as most,, the copay's are higher to see a urgent care. Now Paramount Urgent Care is the best I think of the ones around here, but the Dr. we use to have in Leesburg always took care of the needs. If you were sick, they took care of it, never referred you to a urgent care. I think of my Family Physician as the star of the team, why should I have to go to a substitute for care??? Just my thoughts...

Up north, or wherever you moved here from, did you not ever have a time where you called in and couldn't get in that day??? Well that has happened a time or two here. So, I went to Paramount Urgent Care for my issues! This may have happened 2X...and it was a weekday. I've also gone there on the weekend another time or two. My primary is stellar and I'm pretty satisfied with my health-care here in T.V.!! Of course I must add I'm not familiar with the physician that is being discussed on this thread! Though we've all found a "lemon" in the system---whether it be here, or where we moved here from.
