I am looking for a doctor that takes Medicare patients without putting them on a waiting list. I am currently on a waiting list for Dr.'s Tribble and *****ett in Columbia, SC. I was turned down by Dr. Given's practice because of a bad psychological evaluation (long story). So I guess what I am saying is that I am looking in other cities in SC. I already know of several doctors in Charleston that don't take Medicare at all. I am sure there may be others as well. I am on disability for chronic depression so Medicare is my primary insurance. Please help. I am going crazy waiting!
