I'd like to get some ideas for an excellent primary care physician who is affiliated with an excellent North Shore hospital.

I've just been through a scary hospital experience and although I do like my doctor, I think I will have to change doctors due to the hospital affiliation.

My main criteria are--a pcp who listens and also is open minded to complementary therapies like acupuncture and herbs. Caring and non arrogant. Respects and knows about women's health issues, also older women's issues. Is available for appointments within a few days of calling.

A hospital that is what a hospital should be. Is there a hospital on the north shore that is highly rated? What are the good ones, what are the bad ones.

And if possible, I would like a hospital and doctors who are honest with the patient and not just ordering tests or recommending procedures that will make money and are not for the patient's benefit. I would greatly appreciate suggestions. TIA
