@astaingegerdm I agree. The only local doctor I now see is my PCP, simply because MGH is a bit far to go for a PCP. He knows if I need to see a specialist that I will not be going to one he refers me to. They tend to know much more at major medical centers, perhaps simply because they see so much more. Also, of course, those hospitals always get the "cream of the crop" doctors. That is not to say that no local doctors are any good but I do find they simply have not generally been as there for me as I needed.
I knew a woman up here who had a lump in her breast when she was in her late 30s. Her doctor said not to worry since she was so young! Her friends convinced her to seek another opinion. It did turn out to be breast cancer. That to me is simply unforgivable.
