Moved here recently...my health insurance is crap while I'm looking for work, but I need to find local health professionals to replace the much-loved people I found back in Indiana.

More specifically, I'm looking for a dentist, an internist or general physician, and a gynecologist.

I particularly need a dentist who, along with their hygienists, are nice about people with poor oral health. I also need a GP who doesn't have a problem with continuing the prescriptions I'm currently on. I have never (and I mean never - my doctor in Indiana has been taking care of me since I was two years old) switched doctors, so I don't know if this is an issue or not.

All I really want out of a gyno is someone who's male.

Thanks for any recommendations that come my way!

For the dentist, I am very happy with Drs. Spagna & Kunaish in Falls Church. Everyone there is friendly and it's a very professional shop.

Not sure where you live, but I had waited entirely to long to go to the dentist and cannot stand doctors that think berating people is an excellent way to keep patients. This, along with my overall dental "fears" led me to the most wonderful practice in Haymarket - Greenhill Denistry. Dr. Olsen and everyone that works there is truly wonderful. I actually look forward to going to the dentist these days.

Thanks.

It'd be nice if there was a sticky with one post that actually organizes everything so it's easier to find.

Default My Top Picks for Drs. for you

I've been in this area 20 years, and have tried many doctors until I found some wonderful ones. Dr. Laraine Field is an MD in Alexandria, and she's the best.
Dr. Scott McQuiston (703) 354-0111 in Alexadria is a fantastic, friendly, sweet guy who never yells at patients and accepts any PPO insurance.
Dr. Mary Bush (I know, I know!) in Alexandria, is a really good OB/GYN. I don't go to male OBs because I've had one too many pelvics that hurt like hell for no reason. Good luck!
