It was so exciting to finally retire and get the "benefit" of Medicare. But then I tried to find a gynecologist who accepts Medicare. I have spent the morning trying to find a female doctor who will give me an appointment.
I have been told that they are only taking pre-natal patients (age discrimination) and that they are not taking new patients, not "contracted" with Medicare, or flatly, that they don't accept Medicare!
Is this unique to Santa Barbara or all of California? UCLA's medical center has no problem with Medicare.
