Hi, thanks for taking the time to read. A little background: I grew up in a military family and healthcare was always a no brainer because I just had to go to the clinic on base and get whatever I needed taken care of. Now that I'm out on my own I'm a little confused on the best way to choose my new doctor other than simply asking people for guidance. I feel like it's a big decision and I'm going through some major changes in my life.
I have taken control of my habits after spending a lot of time enjoying the delights of being over 21. I've worked off a lot of weight so far and intend to improve on my progress but would like the guidance of a doctor to make sure I keep myself healthy (and that I am currently healthy, no physical in 2 years). Does your doctor sound like someone that could help out someone like me? I'm male and would probably prefer a male doctor but I am entirely clueless as to what is best and very open to recommendations.
If you go to Find a Doctor and use NFH as the prefix and search based on zip code 20653 you will see what I have access to.
I'm at a loss and feel like I'm throwing a dart when trying to figure out who to go to; any advice? Thank you again for reading.
(I realized right before posting that this is probably better in the Health subforum, I hope posting it here isn't too selfish.)
