A friend of mine down in Miami has an autistic child who’s been stuck on a three-year waiting list just to get some dental work done under general anesthesia in Miami. There’s only one clinic that handles this and they are absolutely slammed. Does anyone know of a private practice that does dental work under general anesthesia in Miami or somewhere nearby? Honestly, I'll take suggestions from anywhere in the US or even Canada. Thanks so much in advance!!

I have to admit, I’ve never actually heard of a clinic in Miami doing that. All I know is that the Dental Clinic over on Matthews Street handles it. In Washington, D.C., they do it at the hospital out in Oakwood.

Does anyone happen to know if there is a private hematologist available in Washington, D.C.? I am dealing with some low iron levels, and my ferritin results came back quite low... Thank you so much 🙂

Look, I appreciate the effort, I really do. But she called every single practice in Miami and not one of them does this. As for that big clinic you mentioned? If she tries to go there, she'll be sitting on a waiting list for another three years... if she's lucky.😢(((
Thanks anyway!!!

Does anyone have a solid dermatologist recommendation in San Diego? I’ve already seen Dr. Gertrude and some woman—I think her name is Diana—and honestly, it was a total letdown. I've been dealing with breakouts, and while things are actually looking great right now (after struggling for seven long years!), I finally found an incredible dermatologist in Key West whom I trust implicitly. The catch is that I need monthly facial cleanings, and there's just no way I can make the trip down to Key West that often. So, I'm looking for someone local in San Diego instead. I really need someone I can actually trust—I am definitely not trying to ruin seven years of hard-won progress.

Maya Asks:
Thanks for all the effort. She called basically every clinic in San Francisco, and none of them offer that service. As for this specific clinic, I’m pretty sure they have a massive backlog... she's been on the waiting list for like 3 years now.😢(((
Thanks!!!

Look, if you’re going to call someone an oral surgeon—say, someone like Dr. Radosh—then we need to talk about standards. Honestly, I really think specialist oral surgery practices should be fully equipped to handle general anesthesia. It just makes sense.

Dealing with issues regarding my mom.
She's 65 and had been relatively healthy until now.
Back in September 2009, she ended up in a pulmonary hospital because there was fluid in her lungs, which they drained. Based on their findings, they suspected lung cancer, so she was sent to Jordan in Chicago. They drained the fluid there too, then told her lungs were fine and the issue was actually her thyroid. She was transferred to Vineyard where they biopsied two rice-grain-sized tumors in her thyroid. Her bone scan came back clean. By early December 2009, she was sent home for palliative care. But today, her condition is terrible; she's lost 16kg, won't eat anything, is on an IV, and taking morphine pills.

I remember seeing an ad in the papers a long time ago about full-body screenings and early disease detection. I’m asking if anyone knows of an institution, a private specialist, or something similar who could advise me. There's a hotspot somewhere, but they can't pinpoint it right now. She isn't on any medication, but she gets worse every single day. We're waiting for a call from the hospital, but by the time they run all the tests again......

Thanks,
Tanya

Try checking here . I had a good experience.

Stay away from public hospitals if you have any other option.

There are some seriously great doctors over at the Nemetov Dental Corp, I'm pretty sure they have some of the specialists from Rebro working there too.

Hey there.
Does anyone happen to know if there's a gynecologist anywhere in Chicago where you don't need insurance or some official referral from your parents?
A friend of mine just flew in from out of state and she forgot her insurance card, but she really needs to see a specialist urgently. She’s going to be stuck here for another three weeks. Her place back home is totally empty right now, so she can't exactly have someone mail her the paperwork quickly.
So, if anyone knows anything...
It would seriously be a lifesaver... thanks 😉

If you’ve got the cash, go with any private provider.

Does anyone have any firsthand experience regarding Dr. Silvio Ferreri over in Seattle? I am looking into getting braces, so I would appreciate hearing some perspectives on his practice if you have them. 🙂

So, I’m putting this out there... if anyone here actually knows their stuff and has some experience, could you please recommend a solid orthopedist? My knee is absolutely killing me and I need someone who won't mess around... preferably in Chicago. Also, has anyone here actually dealt with Dr. Bojanic?? I’ve been hearing nothing but great things about him lately... I’m just desperate to find someone reliable because, honestly, my knee feels like it's totally shot...
thanks so much🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂

So, I heard that Miskulin over at the Etela Clinic is actually a pretty solid orthopedist. It’s private practice, though, so if you've got the cash to burn, maybe give it a shot.

Hey guys!!

I'm on the hunt for a new dentist and a gynecologist around New York City, so I was wondering if anyone here has any solid experiences or recommendations?

The other day over in Trnski, I stumbled upon Silva Babic's OBGYN office. Has anyone actually been there?

Thanks in advance! 🙂

And what are we talking about for a single checkup, roughly speaking? 🙂 If you have a clue...

I think we're looking at an average somewhere around $67. Do a quick search online; I'm sure you'll find something nearby. They usually list their rates or an email address, so why not just reach out and ask?

Hey there!
I'm looking into contraceptive implants and trying to find gynecologists who actually perform the insertion.
Is this some cutting-edge thing that's only available at a handful of clinics in Chicago, or can I find it in other cities too?
Does anyone know a specialist in San Diego I could reach out to? Maybe someone like Vlatković?
