Boston healthcare is fucking amazing. Learn to navigate it. I get specialists and pcp visits relatively fast.

How? What does learn to navigate it mean? I have been calling everywhere and not gotten anywhere. This seems like a gatekeeping response and isn't helpful at all.

My wife recently got a PCP at tufts (she’s new to US healthcare) without too much effort. It shouldn’t be that difficult as there are so many hospitals and doctors in Boston.

This is literally one of the main reasons why I live in Boston because I’m so paranoid about My health, especially as i get older 35+ now.

Great I appreciate this response. I was planning to call Tufts tomorrow so maybe they have some more reasonable timeframes. Thank you very much!
