Local friends: got any good recommendations for a GP/internist? I need a new one, preferably close to home. Thanks! (No, nothing's wrong.)

Virginia Physician Hospital Group Primary Care Arlington. Dr. Chris Walsh. Has satellite office in VA Hospital Center on Geo Mason. 703-717-4245. I've seen Walsh + 3 other docs in the practice and all are great. Good luck.

Pulmonary Medical Associates. I see Casolaro as my GP, but they're all very good - and well connected at VA Hospital Center. They're just down the road in Falls Church and the parking is easy peasy.
Caroline H. replied:
My doctor is Suzanne Wittig from Pulmonary Medical Associates. She just joined the practice one year ago but she has been my doctor for over 11 years. She left her old practice and I followed her to PMA. She is amazing!

Harvard Vangurad Somerville, they are all excellent. We usually only see our primary care for well visits, and for urgent care we see whoever is on call, but they are all great.
Kim S. replied:
Dr Samuel Andonian in Lexington. Love him. Nicest guy you'll ever meet. And he doesn't have any PA's...so it's always just him!

Debra James close to Arlington on Concord Ave in Cambridge. Couldn't recommend her more!!
Ann A. replied:
Bryna McConarty. 22 Mill St Very good,very thorough! Dr Katcher is great too, but her hours are very limited. I switched from Katcher when I had to wait 7 months for a physical! 7 months!!!

Stephanie F. replied:
Steward on Mill Street. Dr Norman is great as is her PA, Yana.
Rich C. replied:
Might not be close enough for you, but I've had good experiences with MGH Primary Care Associates over on 2 nd St in Waltham. Minimal time with PAs (they just weigh you, take your BP, and ask if anything new in your med history) and plenty of time with the MD, at least in my experience.

Looking for advice - anyone in DC have a general practitioner or internist they would recommend? The doctor I was planning on seeing is no longer accepting new patients.
