You are very, very fortunately. I have seriously been thinking of re-locating to NC just for the medical care alone, but have found that the wait time for appt can be just as lengthy. My issue is that I do no have any faith in the Medical Care where I am. Very few leave this area for their education and will go to Med school, internship, Residency and Fellowship at the same institution. That leaves absolutely no opportunity for professional exposure to anyone outside the State. I think that it should be a requirement that residency/fellowship be done outside the State.....the teachings are redundant year after year.
