CASTLE CONNOLLY GUIDE is designed to help people find capable doctors & quality health care in their area. While the focus is on primary care physicians, sub-specialty doctor listings are included, as is information on choosing a hospital & selecting an HMO best suited to one's needs. Sample questions for potential physicians & other health care regulators are incorporated. Although oriented to local physicians, the book also lists "super-specialists," physicians known throughout the region to be outstanding in their field. All doctors listed, regardless of classification, are Board Certified. The physician listings include office address, phone number & HMO affiliations, as well as hospital affiliations & much more data, all vital to careful physician selection. Consumer response to surveys of regional HMOs & area hospitals make up a portion of the book, giving valuable insight to other health care consumers. A health care glossary, an extensive list of toll-free help lines & a list of hospitals known for excellence in a particular field, are just three sections of a large appendix--an invaluable health care consumer reference guide.
