Do You Have a Doctor Come to Your Home?

Yesterday my doctor's assistant came instead of my usual new doctor. She was very nice. Said she has been working with him for a year and a half now. My blood pressure was not good. Won't show it because I am rather embarrassed. And my weight is that of a hippo. "She's a biggen!"
So, I am thinking of starting some physical therapy perhaps in the beginning of this next year. 
I am grumpy because it is so hot. All else seem to be okay at this point. Heart and lungs were good. Hope to do better next time. That will be in 3 months when he visits again. It's so nice that he comes to my house.
For being 74 I guess it could be a lot worse.

My mother had hypertension in her early 40s and she'd usually end up in the hospital so she became friends with her doctors.
When she isn't feeling good, she'd just ask our helper to go to the doctor and the doctor would come and check up on her. Sometimes, they'd just drop by to see how she's doing even on days she was feeling ok.

That's so nice. I'm so glad I found a place where the doctors come to your home.

I had a nurse visit my home in June to check up on me due to having high blood pressure and pre-diabetes before the contract with Medicaid finished in June. Now that I have Medicaid. I am looking for a company that will check up on me soon when I need them.

Never had a doctor come to my house no....but that is good you can.
Sorry about the blood pressure. I have had issues with mine too, but on a medication for that.
