No. If I make an appointment with a doctor, I want to see a doctor. Not dissin' PA's, but if I'm paying for a doctor, I want one. I have seen some good PA's, for the record.
I'm the same way. Usually its just an option due to the doctors limited time schedule. If you're willing to wait (which you will with a GOOD DR), you don't have to see the PA. It's just usually a faster way to get treated. I'm a Dr's son, so I know how all that shiz goes.
