New to US healthcare and trying to get my annual checkup scheduled at Northwestern as it’s closer to where I live in downtown. Can someone tell me how to go about this? What services / doctors I need to look for and what tests to cover during annual checkup?

Look for internal medicine doctors and theyll tell you the tests you need. It would be helpful if you had medical information from your prior country. You may need to be caught up on vaccines.

Just look up primary care physicians (also called internal medicine) and schedule an annual physical. The doctor will determine what tests you need, you don’t need to tell them.

People do annual checkups if healthy?

Bro u should prob get checked even if you're healthy. Sometimes a simple blood panel can reveal stuff too. Even if you're in the bucket of healthy, low fat, moderately active, etc.

Search for someone in internal medicine / primary care and by the campus you want (Streeterville) and call for a new patient appt. You only need a primary care physician for annual checkup and for referrals down the line.

Working on a divorce where the father is claiming that he is unemployed because of the previous administration’s actions with DACA (he was brought to the States as a child). I know that the memo rescinding DACA was ultimately vacated—but OC is unsure whether this would count as voluntary unemployment for child support purposes. I believe it does as the application period to renew DACA benefits was reopened in 2020. Thoughts?

Pros:

Cons:

Made a career pivot to another agency. During the interview we talked about how it may start as initially a "step backwards" (pay/benefits) but has potential for more long term growth. First day was yesterday. Had no communication about when or where to show up, sat in an empty office for about half an hour before a couple people finally showed. No phone call or email. Sent an email to the founder, no response. I could easily get my old job back if wanted.
