    Most of the time a nurse practitioner. Every once in a while they put me in with an M.D. depending on availability. I feel the same way that a lot of the nurses seem to know just as much and I get better answers to some things.
    Although one place I actually always see the actual doctor is Gastroenterologist or any specialist except Dermatology. I even see a Nurse Practitioner there to do my yearly skin checks and she is great!

      NPs are basically almost doctors. My primary care doctor is a NP.
      I like some doctors. My mom's former nephrologist is kinda like family to us. I don't know if it's the Muslim culture, but Middle Eastern doctors seem to be better and nicer in my experience.

        That's interesting. I assume you're doing your visits at the facility that your health insurance covers?

          Yes I do, but most are nurse practitioners practicing under doctors.

                Male doctor. I don't want some woman in charge of my healthcare.

                  I prefer the women. Men are often terrible listeners. Tend to be more arrogant, and vastly overestimate their own intelligence, talent, etc.

                    Well I don't want people to think I'm gay so maybe I'll switch to a female nurse.

                      Doctors are often in it just for the money and phone it in.
