Can someone recommend a solid neurologist? Not at a private clinic, though—I need someone working in the NYC hospital system. Dealing with constant dizzy spells every single day.

Seriously, nobody? 😢
Fine, I guess recommendations from Washington, D.C. will have to do...

Fine, I guess we can pull some info from Washington, D.C. too.

Look, hemorrhoids are a total nightmare when you're actually dealing with them... if you're in the D.C. area, go see Dr. Mario Lemieux over at Vineyard (Sisterhood of Mercy).
Good luck!

Alright, fine. Let's do this from Washington, D.C.

Thanks 🙂 You got any first-hand experience with him?

Good morning, everyone 🙂 I was wondering if anyone could tell me how Dr. Lynda Bimbašić operates? I heard she used to work for the Union Pacific railroad, but word is she’s now practicing right near the big CVS in town. Since I'm based out of San Francisco, as you can see, I'd really appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction. Thanks 😍

Can anyone recommend a good private gastroenterologist?
It's for my dad; he's seeing blood in his stool and the hospital won't be able to see him until the end of the month. We're too worried to wait that long, so we're thinking about going private.

Does anyone have a solid recommendation for a private dermatologist here in Washington, D.C.? Ideally somewhere near the downtown area or maybe closer to the East Side, but honestly, I'm open to anything at this point if they're good. 😉

Does anyone know a solid urologist in the area? Or maybe a decent urology clinic somewhere nearby?

Hello,

Could someone recommend a reliable private urologist in Washington, D.C.?

Jordan Dimanovski. He works at Vinogradsky and also sees patients privately over at the Zahi Clinic. Honestly, I went through quite a few different urologists before I stumbled upon him by total chance... but now? I wouldn't trade him for anything in the world!

Does he run tests for STDs as well? And how long is the typical wait for the results?

They’re most likely working out of a private clinic, so honestly, your best bet is just to hop on their website and take a look... I'm not entirely sure about the turnaround time for results, but usually, private places are a bit faster than waiting around at a big hospital like the Mayo Clinic. Just give them a call and ask directly. A friend of mine went in for a Salad recently and was only waiting three months just to get the exam itself... they didn't even end up needing the actual testing because everything came back fine. Usually, you can just coordinate with them whenever works for your schedule, like, I once set an appointment for the very next day... anyway, what I mean is, just call the clinic, ask all those specific questions, and make sure to mention the doctor's name so they know exactly who you're looking for.

Does anyone know anything about the pediatric nephrology department at Mayo Clinic? How many specialists are on staff, what's their reputation, and how long is the wait for an appointment? Any info at all would be appreciated.

Can anyone recommend a private clinic in Miami where I can get my lower back checked out? Or maybe my neck... I think it might be that since my arm keeps going numb. I don't have supplemental insurance and I really don't want to deal with being bounced around from one hospital department to another just to end up stuck with a massive bill at the end. Thanks.

Can anyone recommend a good GP or family doctor in NYC, anywhere?... I know a fair amount about medicine myself (just as a layperson), so I really appreciate being able to have a bit of a conversation with my doctor... :-)

I stopped by the West Side Emergency Services today (at 11 B. Filipović St) - they have two female doctors there who might be taking new patients: Nevenka Križić and Snježana Maslov. Does anyone know what it's like working with them?...

That’s not a strict requirement, but it definitely wouldn't hurt 😁 Basically, you just want someone warm and positive, you know? Someone who actually gives a damn about their patients and doesn't just act like everything is a huge hassle!

Thanks, everyone 😉
