Karen, Dr. Ho was my doctor when I worked in Dallas. She was great. I've since moved to Dallas Diagnostic Associates Plano instead of DDA Park Cities where Dr. Ho practices. I see a different doctor, but was super impressed with Dr. Zimmer.
Could somebody please recommend a general practitioner in Richardson? I am wanting a check up and some blood work done.

Anyone have a GP that you love? I'm looking for a doctor in the area that isn't a script writing dynamo, won't roll their eyes at my love of acupuncture, and doesn't...
Nicole A. replied:
Dr. George Markus is wonderful & exactly what you're looking for. His office is on N. Collins. My family couldn't be happier. http://www.northdallasprimarycare.com/about-us/
Ann N. replied:
Dr Markus is my doctor also and has been for many years. He's careful about scrip's and doesn't over prescribe antibiotics. And he has a sense of humor! Just say Old Lady Nash sent you.
Steph C. replied:
I have a nurse practitioner who is ahhhhmaaazzziing! My mom, me, my daughters, my dad, my husband all go to her. Denise Russell. She is incredibly patient.
Need a GP recommendation. That Arapaho Medical place at the old hospital on Campbell didn't really work out. Thanks!

Dr Sheryl Cowan is really great. She's probably in your insurance list.
Katherine P. replied:
No, do not return to Dr. Cowan!
Susan C. replied:
Baylor Family is great, all the doctors seem fine.
Vicki R. replied:
Dr Susan Fesmire. Medical specialists associated. Walnut hill across from Presbyterian. She has a fabulous nurse practitioner. The nicest staff I've seen her for 10 years& new her as a resident at UTSW ( I'm a nurse). She is kind, patient, & collaborates. Her office has a lab, X-ray, ultrasound, and stress test & bone density on site so You don't have to go elsewhere. They have an online portal to access your results& email on.
Gari P. replied:
My better half uses Dr Marcus as well.

Baylor family medical care, they are right on the access road going north towards Renner road. Dr. Dalby and dr. Bhat are wonderful!
Thanks for the arborist recommendations y'all...now I need to find a good GP/family doctor/internist in the local area. Who do you guys like? Thanks!
Nicole A. replied:
My family really likes Dr. Markus on Collins just north of Campbell.
Cheryl B. replied:
I've heard Jonathan Lin is awesome. Recommended on here multiple times. Haven't used him myself ... yet.
Drew K. replied:
Charles Kasbarian at Floyd & Arapaho
Cassey S. replied:
Dr. Lin is good!
Regina H. replied:
Another endorsement for Dr. Jonathan Lin!!
Tamara C. replied:
Dr Lin, et al, as John mentioned. Pretty much all the docs at Arapaho Village Medical Assoc.
Stacey A. replied:
Thanks guys! I went to Arapaho Village Medical Association yesterday and saw Dr. Cowan. I liked her a lot! Thanks for all the helpful suggestions!
Stacey A. replied:
OK, I take back what I said about Arapaho Village Medical Association; it's been over a week since I was seen and had bloodwork and an x-ray done. The doctor has had the results on her desk for at least a couple of days. None of my calls have been returned. I've called every day since Tuesday. Has anyone else had this problem? Personally I find this to be totally unacceptable. The practice's excuse for the doctor not calling me with my results is "she's really busy." My thought is if she's too busy to phone patients with test results, she's too busy to be a doctor.
Regina H. replied:
I saw Dr. Cowan once when our doctor, Jonathan Lin, MD was on vacation. I wasn't impressed with her demeanor. I won't see her again unless she is the one and only option.
Can someone recommend a good primary care physician? Need someone who will actually listen to me rather than dictate to me or telling me I'm imagining things. Thanks!
Stacy L. replied:
Dr McMillan or her PA Ally at Garland Family Medical Center off of George Bush and Garland Road. Dr. McKnight is great too
Cassey S. replied:
Dr. Jonathan Lin is pretty awesome!
Leisha R. replied:
We love Dr. Ahmad on Collins blvd in Richardson. He actually listens!
Cassandra S. replied:
Dr. Karen King is amazing
Drew K. replied:
Dr. Charles kasbarian is spectacular
Danielle S. replied:
Love Dr. Richard Townsend (not to be confused with our neighbor, Richard Townsend). He once actually met me at his closed office on a Saturday to give me a new inhaler.
Laurel M. replied:
I really love Dr. Douglas Cluff. He is both a great listener and also willing to tell me when to worry or not worry, what my options are and what he recommends. He is the kind of doctor who I feel cares about me as a person, not just a sack of symptoms.
Richard T. replied:
Plus Dr. Richard Townsend is Canadian. Bonus.
Tam B. replied:
Dr Jonathan Lin, Arapaho Medical Village on Campbell.
Looking for a good family doctor/general practitioner in the area. Any recommendations??
Drew K. replied:
Charles Kasbarian at Floyd & Arapaho is fantastic!
Allison H. replied:
i like Lalita Gupta at Inova RIchardson at Arapaho and Coit (near Radio Shack and that beer store on the corner). They take a bunch of different insurance, you can always get in, and they are THOROUGH. plus you can do blood work and everything right there, and they are easier (and cheaper) that primacare. Its got more of a clinic-y feeling in the waiting room than a swanky doctors office, but the care is great.
