    If anyone has a name, please send it to Leah by private message ~ we can’t have the names posted on the Board.

    It’s tough to know, based on just a list of names, and that’s why we recommend that you call the office and talk to the office staff. Whoever answers the phone can give you general info on how busy the doctor is, how often their schedule gets out of control, and the general demeanor of the person (happy, bland, anxious, that sort of thing). Then you can ask to speak with the nurse that works with the doctor most often, and ask about the doctor’s likelihood of listening when the patient has questions and/or opinions of their own. One phone call can save a LOT of time going to visit in person. And if the office staff won’t speak to you or call you back, that’s another clue.

    Is there anyone on this site that sees a doctor in Nashville, TN and actually likes them and would recommend him/her? There are so many to choose from and you can’t tell how good they are just from their name. HELP!!!!! Thank you!

    When either of you find the good doctor in Nashville, get him or her to help he two of you to start a support group there. On the old bulletin board, that is what we called a "shamless plug".
    Have you gone to [url:3jezokof]http://www.thyroid.org"?[/url:3jezokof]"That is the American Thyroid Association, and you can search for patient referrals/thyroid specialists. There are two listed in Nashville. Good luck!.
