@penn1023 yes, i'm with the concierge general practitioner, so basically you pay an annual fee.Just so you can get a doctor's appointment.If you have a cold or a headache, and then you pay like you.Normally would for a doctor it's the most bizarre ridiculous concept i thought this person would be my quarterback for all the specialists, but there's no connecting the dots going on here. And I'm making my own appointments for every kind of specialist after doing research and eliminating things. And by far, no means a doctor but if every month, for 16 months, my blood work clearly shows nutritional deficit, and I eat like crap, but you keep increasing and increasing. And increasing the dosages of all these vitamins and supplements. And yet my levels are remaining the same as if I never took a vitamin. So the next normal question would be is, why is she not absorbing these nutrients. Not just constantly increasing the dosages and you don't need a medical degree to grasp that concept.

@malmor

I echo your sentiments about the concierge doctor. I chose mine because he is a rheumatologist but like you, I am paying big bucks and still have to connect the dots to get answers to my health questions. It is so disappointing. Surely, our health care system is in peril.
