Does anybody else see a pattern here?? The charges for those FAA physicals are just sinking like a lead weight, just like pilot salaries!!! I'll bet if we advertise and wait long enough, those doctors will be falling all over themselves to do the medicals for free!!

See, pilots aren't the only profession to have a salary race to the bottom!! That should make us all feel better.

Kovats. Office just east of downtown. Being new to Orlando, I asked for some recommendations and his name came up the most.
Appears it pays to shop around. This is actually an educational thread....and people "complain" flightinfo is idle chit chat!

I go to Eugene Chambers. His office is on Semoran about a block south of Lake Underhill/SR-408. I've been going there every 6 months for about 4 years now...no complaints. They're always very accomodating(even when I call and need my medical within 3 days because I'm an idiot and didn't realize it expired in a few days), and it's quick. They don't over-schedule and a large majority of what they do is flight physicals. I've never spent more than 45 minutes from the time I arrived until I left, and it's usually more like 20 minutes. If you're interested in going to him next time, look at the AME link on the front page of flightinfo for contact info.

I went to Chambers when I first moved to MCO. He did 2 of my physicals and both were time consuming and he had problems with his EKG machine that put me in a bind.

I asked folks for their recommendations for a new AME and they suggested Kovats. I've been using him for my last 8 physicals and couldn't be happier. If I move, I will consider returning to MCO every 6 months to have Kovats conduct my physicals.
