Choosing a Doctor

What are the factors that you consider when choosing a doctor? Aside from being part of hte insurance’s network and all, how else do you decide?

Khoobsurat.. khoobseerat, single of course and knows how to cook. Pretty basic things actually.

^ lol!

I look at the location of the doctor's practice, the gender (must be female), general reputation etc.... not much really.

Re: Choosing a Doctor

In Canada, we have a shortage of family doctors/GP's - so the first thing I look for is a doctor that is accepting new patients (because most of them arent), then I make sure the doctor is female. Then I also prefer someone who is older, because they have more experience. And I also ask around to find references, and recommendations. And also that they are close to where I live, and wait times are not going to be hours and hours! and a clean clinic!
