@stuckonu I had a very good nephrologist leave a group practice because he was allotted only 15 minutes per patient, including data input. His thought [and I agreed] was that was not enough time. He was educated in a way that left no room for hurry-up-and-get to-the-next one. There are practices these days who use a scribe to do computer entry alongside the dr, enabling the dr to do their job. My current kidney dr uses an in-person scribe, while my cancer dr uses a voice activated software that records everything, then it is transcribed. Regardless, I use the internet to assist me in getting information, as needed. I don't expect my team to have all the answers, as my case is different than the next person, and I am the only one who has gone through my exact situation.
