Looking for a new PCP in Arizona

ildiheil @ildiheil ,

Unfortunately it is a issue of supply and demand. As population ages and more people retire to warmer states, the demand for medical providers increase.

I attached PDF report: "Tackling Arizona’s Primary Care Physician (PCP) Shortage" , from Univ Az on shortage. It is from 2019, but doubt much has changed,

I was born at a Mayo hospital over 65 years ago and one of reason I stay in bitter cold MN is health care. Even though I have a PCP at Mayo Rochester, I still have problems getting an appointment with specialist at Mayo. I compete with appointment availability with patients from all over the world.

Than you for the information. It really helped. We were blessed to have 4 great health care systems to choose from in Ohio. We chose to stay with the Cleveland Clinic and loved the quality care we recieved. We are hoping to find the quality of care here in Arizona.
