New to the city, what’s the best way to find a doctor (GP)? Looking at ZocDoc and there’re a lot of options - what are the parameters to look for? Any tips from locals (e.g. what’s the best hospital affiliation to have, best education, etc)?

You can look at your insurances site to see what places are covered so you’re not spending a ton out of pocket

Make sure you’re looking under your insurance plan — pick an area that will be close or convenient to your apt, and check if they have a good rating + tons of reviews.

This is a question which I'm curious about people's thoughts. Mostly reflecting on the past since I'm way too far in audit to make a career change. Did I make a mistake by not trying for law school? I took the LSAT when I was a first year associate and got a 168. At this point, the score expired and would need to retake. I know law is riskier than audit. But a part of me wonders if I'd have been better off (except more student loans) if I went to law school instead of sticking with audit?

I have a Masters and 8+ years working in an external relations role in a hospital. I have since moved to the payor side. Would it be valuable to pursue another graduate degree (MPH or Dr PH) in order to advance in the payor world or would more education actually hurt my chances?
By advancement, I mean I would earn the degree and then try to find a job at a competitor. My leaders either don’t have graduate degrees or they don’t seem to value them.

Has anyone over the age of 35 gone back to med school? What were your challenges? Was it worth it?

Mentioning the programs is greatly appreciated.
