Here is a Suggestion to all DR1ers who live in the DR, or spend a large part of their year here.
GET A DOCTOR!!!
Find a good Primary Care Doctor, BEFORE you need one, especially in an EMERGENCY!
That way, they will KNOW who you are, your medical history, medications, and more about you.
They can refer you to any specialists you may need.
When you have chest pains at 3 am, its NOT the time to look for a good cardiologist!!!
If you ALREADY have a cardiologist who knows you, he/she may be in the ER waiting for you when you get there.
Otherwise you get to an ER, they go look for a doctor, wake them up, and you get doctor,?FULANO De Tal",who will probably know as much about heart disease as you do, very possibly LESS!!!!
Trust me on THIS ONE!!!!!!
