Anyone have a recommendation on where to get a medical in Atlanta? I'm stuck here and managed to forget that I turn into a pumpkin at the end of this month. Thanks.
 
When I lived in Atlanta, I used Steven Leonard. He is off Peachtree Rd in Buckhead just down the street from Lenox Mall.

Sorry, I lost the number, but you should be able to find him in the FAA directory.

Great guy. No appointment necessary, just show up. Quick and easy. I highly recommend this AME. He is in the Vinings area.

Dr. Leonard just moved to Ravinia Plaza at Perimeter, building #2, suite 1740. He's a good guy, laid back, and can take fairly short notice appts. Ph# 404-266-0010.
 
All close to PDK

Dr. Steve Leonard: 404-266-0010

Dr. Robert Shuman: 770-422-4343

Dr. Stacey Vereen: 404-761-2166
 
Many thanks for the quick replies. I ended up seeing Dr. Kauffman (walked in without an appointment, was back out in about 20 minutes) and it only cost me $15. I have to say that I am quite impressed by both the expediency and the pricing.

Not sure I want to know what happened in that office!

Seriously though, did you file this? Was it a $15 copay or what?

By the way, you win the avatar contest as far as I'm concerned.
 
I can't speak for katanabob, but I use Dr. Kauffman and recommended him in this thread. He accepts my insurance and his office files the claim. They show it as a "routine physical". I only pay the $10 co-pay. I'm guessing the same applied to katanabob.
 
hmm.. maybe it was a copay. I know that insurance has never covered a medical before, but maybe he does file it as a physical or something. they said '$15', I asked them if they were sure, and I paid/ran before they changed their mind.

it takes forever to find a good avatar..
 
Co pay no longer good at Kauffman's

Supposedly ASA (UHC) insurance will pay for the medical exam, you just have to send in the paper work yourself and cough up the $145 (no ekg) at the office.

Still a quick and painless visit with a nice guy.

I hope I get my 145 back minus the copay.

Dr Dave (Williams) will take godd care of you. He also offers a free BCG vaccine that he say's cures everything. I have refused everythime although one of my buddies gave in and took one. Ask him how he gets it into the US the answer he will give you is why I refuse it. Other than that if you can fog the mirror you will leave w/ a medical.

Also Stacy Vereen near the ATL airport is very good. I have seen both sveral times.
