I agree... Dr. Joseph Misiewicz, MD is an amazing primary care doctor. He has the time for patients and last minute care.

I've noticed that PCP docs that are part of a "hospital group" never have time or appointments available.

Twice last year, I drove to ConvenientMD Urgent Care because my PCP at the Lakes Region General Hospital affiliated Internal Medicine practice in Laconia couldn't see me; they said go to ER, "if it's that bad."

I wound up having the FLU and wanted to get Tamiflu within it's recommended 3-day window of the Rx being effective.

No thanks to the LRGH Internal Medicine practice on Spring Street, I was able to see a physician at the ConvenientMD and get the proper Rx and follow up needed. It wasn't an "emergency" in the ER sense, but it was an emergency to me.

Until LRGH gets taken over by a real hospital, they are just a bunch of lawsuits in the making.... just read the past years problems in the news. They can't keep doctors and every PCP seeing new patients is a ARPN or PA...

As with any PCP, you'll be referred to a specialist if needed, ie: Dartmouth or CMC for the best care in the state.
