I just started seeing Dr Agbo and really like him. I am getting necessary lab work and not a bunch of costly tests.

Something else that may be a concern....is to me...I went to a family doctor here in TV not too long after we arrived. I had not been to a doctor in several years, so it was time for all the tests, exam, etc. I saw the doctor for about 5 minutes, he ordered all the tests, then everytime I go back for results, I see the PA. On 2 occasions, the PA has suggested a treatment (nothing serious), and when I questioned him, he had to go find the doctor and ask him. Both times, the doctor changed the treatment plan. My point being, if I had just done what the PA suggested, it would have been wrong. Or maybe it would have been right, and the doctor was wrong. Either way, it makes me a bit uncomfortable. And I have never even MET my gynocologist!! Nurse practitioner handles it all, including biopsies. I met my dermatologist once, when he was removing a spot. Exams all done by someone other than the doctor. BTW, I don't feel real confident about that, either. I am hoping to get in on the new Villages Health Care program. |

"Pharmacists and optometrists could act as primary care providers, diagnosing and managing some chronic illnesses, such as diabetes and high-blood pressure...." Amongst other big concerns, this certainly makes me wonder how the endocrinologist, for example, will be viewed as needed or not, and whether they will be trained and paid in the future.
