Since, for some reason, you mentioned place of residence, you might also know there are way MORE physicians (of your income group) who live in Madison and Flowood than live in your gated CCJ or Belhaven and Fondren. Who cares where any of you live? This is about customer service, which, in this case, means the availability of care (including surgery) where the customers are.<br /><br />If I drive North State to Baptist for ortho surgery on a knee, I'll also need neck and back surgery by the time I get there.

We have fine doctors who serve everyone.

We do travel to Madison and flowood. Several physicians in my group live in CCJ, belhaven, fondren etc... we treat all patients equally and this community bashing needs to stop. It's garbage.

Please take a moment and give us your opinion of why so many clinics, specialties, physicians and related health care facilities have relocated (or branched) to Madison over the past ten years. <br /><br />And while you're at it, let's get your opinion as to why places like the gigantic colonoscopy business relocated to Flowood from North State Street and the Jackson Ear business (hearing aids) moved out of St.Dominic's and are now in Flowood. <br /><br />Obviously you continue to fixate on stucco, but try to forget that for a moment while you craft an answer.

Let's don't have any restrictions - you and your Madison County neighbors all should have your own private hospital across the street from your stucco mansion. Or at least, within your cookie cutter development. Having drive eight miles into Jackson or ten miles into Canton - to the new Merit Hospital that replaced the old one five miles further thereby grossly inconveniencing you those daily trips I'm sure you have to make to a hospital. <br /><br />" No more CONs - a chicken in every pot, and a hospital for all immediately around the corner."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-71102449806130264762019-10-01T21:06:26.393-05:002019-10-01T21:06:26.393-05:00As a monthly subscriber to NewCareMD up in Madison...As a monthly subscriber to NewCareMD up in Madison, last December the good Doc thought I might have a blood clot in my left leg, so he hooked me up with the new Hospital in Canton and some kind of "Medsave voucher" or the sorts to have them ultrasound my leg. The hospital and staff were incredibly nice. From the parking to the intake paperwork to the procedure. ALL an easy experience. $200 out the door total. Years ago at St. Dominics that was $800 to the Nuns and another $175 or so to the Radiologists.

To hell with this CON process that denies need and restricts us to traveling to antiquated buildings in Jackburg. And moving the old Canton hospital six miles to the west didn't do jack shit.
