I haven't had a general practicioner since childhood and after several illnesses have promised my family I will find one here in Chicago. But, I want to be sure I find a good one. What factors do you use in choosing a general practicioner? How many of you have GPs and why? Does anyone have a GP they can recommend in Chicago? Thanks!

Now the trouble is I am in Canada so I can't help too too much,
here are some suggestions
contact the American College of Physicians for some guidance or - Royal College of General Practioners ... Chicago, IL
your local hospital will certainly be able to recommend a good physician
nurses I have found are a great resource, they can tell the good ones from the bad ones
recommendations from neighbours, don't feel shy to say that you are new to the area and would like to know who they recommend
I am having to move and leave behind my dr's of almost 20 years and my local pharmacist.
I don't look forward to the search for a replacement as I am on Medicare and Medicaid. Good Luck to you!
