I have United and use Advani. I like her very much -- in fact, she was the first endocrinologist in a long time who really helped me, and didn't just expect me to take synthroid and go away and stop complaining.

Couldn't you use sick days?

I like Dr. Amy Toscano-Zukor at Summit Medical Group very much, and she is on United.

I currently go to Dr. Toscano-Zukor and find she ignores most of my symptoms. I am looking to switch as well.

She is (in a word) HORRIBLE! I went to her twice. In her arrogance, she wanted to prescribe insulin for my Type II diabetes. I asked her to test my insulin levels, which really got her shackles up. I had to literally demand she test my insulin levels and finally she relented. They came back so abnormally high it wasn't funny. When I brought this to her attention (she wasn't even mentioning it during my follow up appointment) she said to me "don't you think I know what I'm doing?" and my answer was "obviously not"

Can you clarify which doctor you think is horrible? You're quoting two different doctor comments.

No exaggeration -- I just finished calling 22 doctors and none of them had an appointment available at any time in November (I don't want to hear anything more about doctors bellyaching about how "Obamacare" is putting them out of business). I found Dr. Anna Kissin in Florham Park who can see me -- so fingers crossed!
Thanks, everyone for your advice/suggestions.
