How do I check out a doctor?

Answer by  PJ24 (220)

Locate a doctor in your area, for example through the web or Yellow Pages. Then make an appointment and go visit him!

There's no real good way to do so. Internet searches often don't provide a good enough basis to determine a doctor's worth. The best way to find out are by word of mouth from that doctor's patients and what other doctors feel about him/her.

Healthgrades. com is a good source for doing a checkup on a DR. However would of mouth is the best practice. Word of a good Dr spreads fast.

Assuming your already have the doctor's name, I would google his name; do a litte research online. An if all else fails, I'd call the physician refferal line and ask questions.
