Your family doctor can be very helpful too if you should need a specialist. Better to at least be a patient on their rolls, even if you only go rarely.

If you make an unnecessary appointment with a doctor and he might see you right away, you might be given some unnecessary tests which might lead to some unnecessary pills and procedures which might lead to some unnecessary bad results. Let the buyer beware!
