My doctor of 11 years retired and I got no referral. Now, I can't find another who'll take me without a referral. I've recently gone through Covid induced pneumonia (recovering), so it's dangerous for me to be without medical care. Anyone in the BR area who can recommend a doctor, please do. Thanks.
@A myHIVteam Member, there is a provider directory on this site, type in your area and see what doctors come up.
It would be a bit of a drive, but I use infectious disease specialist Dr. Jonathan Hand, at Ochsner Main campus (New Orleans/Jefferson). I have another primary care physician at the same location, who coordinates with I.D. as needed. I don’t see Dr. Hand often. Perhaps you could use a Baton Rouge Ochsner primary care physician, who could tag team with New Orleans the same way. Good luck.
Oh, boy, a road trip! Thank you, King Nola. (BTW, "Nola" would make a great drag name for a performer in the Crescent City.) I haven't been to NO since Katrina. But the Ochsner is a good connection, since they have outlets in both locations. Thanks for that suggestion. And, BTW, I have-- as I have so far with every other illness that has happened along-- beaten the pneumonia.
Sending you love, hope your going to be OK.
