I LOVE Carrie Carlson @ McGreevy West. She's great! Even though she has a busy practice, she takes time to listen to you and you very rarely feel rushed in her office -- except during flu and RSV season when she's running crazy -- and even then she or her nurse, who's also great, explain that she's on overload. They always offer to schedule you another appointment and block out more time if you have major issues to discuss. Her scheduler and nurse are very good about getting back to you on issues, and Carrie herself often will call. The oncologists I work for think she's one of the best PCP's in Sioux Falls. She is very pro-active on including her patients in their health care decisions, always giving you your options, then asking your opinion. She also doesn't get offended if you come in with information you've researched yourself that she may not be aware of. She always looks at it, and has, on occasion, asked me to let her look into it further and she then gets back to you with her feelings on the issue. She's a DO, so she's had more orthopedic training than a PCP who's an MD, so she's great on helping with obesity related muskulosekeletal issues. My little boy loves her so much, he even gave her a hug AFTER his Kindergarten shots! I think that says is all!
I'm trying to piece together my insurance (Dakotacare Administrative Services--DAS), and I'm stumped on finding a PCP. Anyone have any good reports on theirs? I know this is probably VERY uncouth, but I'm really stuck! LoL I don't want to just pick a name off a list, but this website is about the only place I know of other SD residents who might be in the same boat as myself.
Anyone?
