I need to find a doctor. I hate finding a new doctor. Does anyone have suggestions for a doctor in the Bellevue area who accepts Cigna insurance?

I don't know if the clinic takes Cigna, but I liked the nurse practitioner I went to see a couple of weeks ago. Evergreen Family Medicine of Redmond (http://www.evergreenhealthcare.org/primarycare/emg/family_redmond.htm), and I saw Shao-Ti Meredith. She gave me the most thorough physical I've ever had, she actually took the time to *listen* to me, and there was a complete absence of ZOMG UR FAT UR GUNNA DIIIIIIIE.

Also, they're right next to the Three Lions, which is a total win as far as I'm concerned.

Heh. That's who I've been seeing lately, and I've had a similar experience. She's the one who found I was deficient in vitamins B12 & D and not just depressed. She also prescribed an inhaler for exercise-induced asthma, with no "but are you sure you're not just out of breath because you need to exercise more?"

Even when I messed up my knee and expected "Well, you're fat, what do you expect?" what I got was "Oh, I think you need to do physical therapy, I will write you a prescription." :)

I know :) [livejournal.com profile] dianthus recommended her on your behalf when I was asking around a few months ago.

You know, the idea that [livejournal.com profile] dianthus had told you had occurred to me, but now [livejournal.com profile] hollyking knows the story.

I'm impressed you came all the way to Redmond.

Sounds great! Sadly it doesn't looks like they take my insurance.

Jeremiah, Jericho and Steph have been impressed with Dr. Griffin, but she's way over in Seattle

So might I be soon so that's not necessarily a bad thing.
