Thanks Ketan, Jon, Chris, Wayne, Bert, Dave and more come to the rescue. I need all your heavy duty hits to push my doc to think away from her preferred 'old style'. But myself like Dave's idea the most . Are docs in Alaska any difference? 10 patients a day? 5 o'clock and getting out off the office and go fishing, heavenly... Jon you are right about documentation overload, but that is something I can not help her much because I am a senior now, absent minded, sometimes mind not clearly focused. I did think about someone to scribe but she is old school and said family practice too complicated, too many different assessments...not a high class derm or GI doc to have a low pay side kick around(not offensive any derm doc and not you Jon ...her question was that any family doc out having an assistant like Jon's suggestion? Any doc out there having an assistant in the room, or doing most of subjective chart items to give more advice on this? I read this from many of you before in the forum but like to retouch the subject as a comprehensive survival help in one topic.
