Seeking a Doctor for Myself

You guys hooked me up with an AWESOME pediatrician... now I'm looking for a doctor for myself. I'm looking for just a general practitioner - it's been a while since I've had just a normal check up. I want to go to someone who doesn't act like I'm wasting their time (does a doctor like that exist???) I live in the south Riverview area, but would be willing to drive to Brandon or FishHawk for a good doctor. Thanks!

What can I do next?

I found a good one finally. I go to Bloomingdale Medical Associates on Boyette rd and I see the Nurse Practitioner, Debra Hastings (####-###-#### ext 245). I like her alot, she never rushes me out and asks a lot of questions about me and my health. The office has a lab onsite so that makes it super easy to have blood tests done. She can also do well-woman exams if you don't want to see a seperate ob-gyn. I have to second what another poster said about Adam Levine/Jill Hechtman (Exodus). I used them to deliver my second son (we had just moved here when I found out I was pregnant and had no idea where to go). It was the hugest mistake, they are absolutely awful there. Good luck with your Dr search!

I used to go to Bloomingdale Medical Associates on Bell Shoals just past Boyette. If you google the practice name you can pull up their information.

I recommend Family Medical on 301 by the Sherman Williams Paint store. They have a great group of doctors.

Hello!! I was in your same boat about 6 months ago, and I wish I could have gotten advice from other women before I had the worst experience with a dr. But anyways, DO NOT go to Adam Levine or Jill Hechtmanler-long story short-worst experience ever!! I believe they are associated with the women's clinic in Brandon. I just know the address is 401 Oakfield Drive. I did find one dr. who is an ob/gyn that I have seen once, but I really liked her and the nursing staff. Very professional and she had a lot of patience with me. I was in with her for about 30 min, getting all of my questions answered and a thorough check up. Her name is Heidi Arnold, ###-###-####. She is located in Brandon as well. Hope this helps!!

4 children under the age of 6-wow!! Do you like them that close together? We are about to start trying for number 2 when our son is about 9-10 months. Good luck with the Dr. thing.
