    Hi guys!! I am needing to find a good family doctor, maybe more specifically, one with experience with asthma and respiratory ailments. But, please, just give me some names and reasons why you would recommend your doctor. Thanks!!

    A familydocter is not a specialist but an all-rounddoktor.
    Dokter Yee in Holy Child is good and certainly will recomend a specialist if necesary.

    Family doctor

    Yes, I know the difference in family doctors and specialists (I am a nurse:D), but some family doctors have much experience in specialty fields. Some people here may have asthma or have family members with asthma, and are happy with the treatment of that by their family doctors. We had a fantastic family doctor in Manila who would put any pulmonologist to shame. Anyway, thanks for the name of the doctor, really just needing some names of recommended family doctors right now. We have already seen one pulmonologist, wasn't overly impressed, though. There is another pulmonologist, who was in an unfortunate accident and had both arms crushed, and is out of commission for a while. He is the one who was recommended, though.

    I was hoping that one of you could recommend a general practioner that you were impressed with. Your help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    Dr. Credo at Silliman is good. We have been using her for 2 years now. Great doc but I don't know how she is on pulmonary problems.
