Regardless of warm hands and medical certificate from the bottom of the class Topago Med School, they still call you "Doctor". imoo, seek the best care from Peer rated specialist in the USA, usually found at the Top Medical school/hospitals. Cornell, HUPenn, John Hopkins, etc
Both University Hospitals (affiliated with Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, my alma mater), and Cleveland Clinic (where I performed my residency) are in his AO. Both have excellent specialists. Finding superior generalists/primary care providers can be more challenging.
