So I called HousecallMDNY after being frustrated with my own physician. The long waits and the feeling of being rushed through the visit made me feel like I was on an assembly line.
To be fair, I had some vague complaints - arthritis, fatigue, etc. - and maybe my doctor thought I was a hypochondriac and didn't take me seriously. From the moment Dr. Seitz showed up, I knew this experience would be different. He took a detailed history, asking where I had been and then did a physical exam.
He gave me a prescription to get a couple of blood tests at a local lab thinking that I might have Lyme's Disease. Well - he was right. And after a month of antibiotics which he prescribed, I'm doing great. From what I have read its lucky he caught my case pretty early. I feel fortunate to have met such a caring and knowledgeable doctor.
