In the case of a doctor not born in this country I search to see what hospital took them on when they came here. It's the same as with anything else in life - research, research and then research again.
I do the same.....research, research.......

One thing that I find that is interesting here.......when going to docs up north....hometown wherever.....it seems that the Drs either went to school there, stayed and are in a practice in their home state. Some of the docs I went to school with, knew from childhood, etc.....When looking up docs here, seldom are they ever from Florida. They come from somewhere else ( which is not unusual for Florida).....however, they seem to have moved and moved and moved. ...from state to state...why is this?
