Los Alamos Medical

Does anyone know about Medical Associates of Northern New Mexico in Los Alamos?

It turns out there is no endocrinologist available here in Santa Fe
that will take medicare.  The death panels are already upon us!

The local specialist mentioned one of the practitioners in MANNM, a Dr
Garimella, as a good choice.

More generally, does anyone have a good suggestion for a practice in
Los Alamos or Albuquerque?  It looks like Santa Fe may be a poor
choice, and so I might as well start looking elsewhere.

When I lived in Palo Alto, we had a really great group practice.  When
my GP first noticed my thyroid problem, he picked up the phone and I
went down the hall and had an immediate consultation!  Here that would
take a couple of months.

I've heard the Rust Medical Center in Rio Rancho is quite good, and that
if one had anything seriously awry with one's health that one should
contrive to get transferred there.  You could perhaps start there and
get a referral.

Thanks Carl .. they appear to be a pretty complete facility.

Anyone else familiar with good medical practices in Abq?  Now that I'm
warming to the idea, maybe Abq will be the best alternative.

RMC has the upside of being north of the really bad Abq traffic, one
can get off at Bernalillo and take the Pat D'Arco highway south.
That's about 12mi.  Or get off at Del Norte and its 5mi.
