For those of you using Dr. Kaufman, they no longer allow us to use the 15$ co-pay. They said the ASA insurance company wasn't paying them the difference. Now it's 145$ for your medical. Anyone know of anyone cheaper?
 
In Newnan, Guy Arnall at the Summit Health. $75. Quick and easy.....

Baheeg L Shadeed, MD

Walkins are ok. I think it was $75

I believe Shadeed was the guy by the DQ off of Camp Creek. If so, he's moved...0/2 today....
 
Yeah, he was a bit of a drive. He was in an office building near a small little hospital. Nice guy and there were about five of us there for walkins that morning. Only a 20 min ordeal.

How much?

I second Doc. Harper outside of PDK. Great guy, didnt know he raised the price of a 1st class to $105 though. I always go out of my way to get back to him for my medicals.
 
Shadeed is now in an office at 3969 South Cobb Drive, Smyrna (770)-438-9191. Closest to Marietta I've found. I think it was around $75 last time I went.

Kennesaw Doctor

I used Dr. Snell in Kennesaw for my last physical, but that was three years ago. Reminder, got to go this month. I believe he was $80 or $90 then.
 
Dr. Williams off of Delk is ~$80 with EKG if needed. He's off off Dlek rd in Marietta. But beware he also does immigration physicals so it can be a mad house. Make sure you have plenty of time on your hands!
 
For anyone interested, Dr. Schacher in Athens (75 min drive) is only 65$ and is easy....
 
Go to Harper, expensive, but worth it

Just to let you know Guy Arnall uses a messed up vision screener and I FAILED the vision portion of my medical. Never came close to failing before or since.

I went to my opthomologist (ex air force flight sugeon) and he said I had better then 20/20 corrected, but he tweaked my prescription a bit anyway. So I went back to Arnall and failed AGAIN. Arnall advised me that if I failed a THIRD time, he would have to fail my medical. After putting in some JACKED UP disposable binocular contacts and LOTS of cheating I passed.

My eye doc said not to go back.

Harper near PDK is the way to go.
 
Sorry about your problems with Arnall, I didnt have any trouble with them or with the vision test. Pretty standard.
 
Ok, I found David Williams near Marietta. He takes the 15$ co-pay. Sweeeeeet. However, I hear it can take up to 1 1/2 hours. Works for me.
