Amazingly, the Mills clan now have a family physician in our area.
We started looking for a Doc shortly after arriving in the area in 2007.  We weren't overly aggressive about searching until last winter.
Our 8-year-old is prone to strep infections.  After multiple emergency room visits, Erika started praying.  During one snowy visit, a new-to-town, super-nice physician introduced himself to Erika and Shawna and asked if we had a family physician.  Erika said, "no".  So he volunteered to enlist our whole family as his patients.
We took our forms into his office and after two or three unsuccessful follow-up calls that went unanswered, we gave up.  It was strange but we assumed that his patient list must not have room for us.
Last week we received an out-of-the-blue call from his office.  I'm still not sure what prompted them to call us.  Nevertheless, the receptionist asked if we still needed a family physician.  We told her we did.  The rest is history.
We met him on Wednesday.  He is warm, friendly, and he took a lot of time to answer questions and check us over.  And the best part is that every computer I saw was a Mac.
I don't even care if he knows stuff about family medicine.

to have a good doctor is good.
He might say you are unhealthy if you don't dress like the mac guy in those commercials though ;)
Fanboy M.D. or is it Rev. Fanboy.?
And somewhere here there has be be a joke about an "Apple a day"
Also, I don't think 4 people count as a clan.
