Family Doctor Hilo - Medicare? - Carolann R - 09-14-2006 I am starting a new thread here because things change so often. My mother is 70 (today) and disabled. We found a Prosthetist in Hilo, but will need a family doctor who takes Medicare. She is on several medications and needs to be seen monthly because of that reason. If you have an elderly friend or parent or other and they see a good family doctor in Hilo, please lemme know who and where...we'll do some research, but frankly it's been somewhat difficult from so far away. We'll be there soon, but I would like to have something lined up or at least a prospect before we leave. Mahalo once again for all your help. Carrie "To be one, to be united is a great thing.

Kind of get a list and go from there. Just an idea.

Lee RE: Family Doctor Hilo - Medicare? - Kapohocat - 09-14-2006 Believe it or not, Keaau Clinic just got an unbelievable doctor - Dr. Leibenmoth - he's a bit unconventional - down to earth - and seems to know his stuff. Of course time will tell if he stays - but he previously worked in small communities (practised rural medicine rather than big city medicine). -Cat Catherine Dumond Blue Water Project Management 808 217-7578 http://bluewaterpm.125mb.com/index.html "We help make building your dream home a reality" |
