Selecting a Primary Care Physician

There are many factors to consider when selecting a physician to care for your primary care needs. Do you prefer to see a family practitioner or an internist?

If you have children, do you prefer them to see a pediatrician or a family practitioner?

Other things to consider:

  • Do you prefer a male or female physician?
  • Do you have a strong preference about a physician's age?
  • Do you prefer that your physician be board certified?
  • How important is it for the physician to spend a lot of time answering your questions?
  • How important are your physician's location, punctuality and office hours?
