@HImom, there is a discount for families but our older two aren’t at home and the youngest still sees our family’s trusted pediatrician. I didn’t join when my husband did because I was under the care of an oncology team and as a participant in a study was seeing them at least every 3 months. More medical exams seemed like overkill. I pretty much see my PCP once a year for a Pap smear, nothing else.

Having largely graduated from my oncologists’ care I am considering joining but strangely I’m a bit hesitant because I’ve gotten to know my husband’s doctor as a friend and having that professional distance broken makes me feel a bit uncomfortable about the prospect of using him for my full physicals.
