Finding A Doctor in Texas

Spydr · 09-15-2005, 02:04 PM

I am on Medicare and it seems that doctors in Dallas are no longer taking Medicare because they are not getting paid. I was scheduled with Dr Benivedes and as of Sept 1st he will no longer take Medicare. I have a psyc eval tomorrow and no doctor. Any help would be great as I am very frustrated. Thanks!

Thanks. I also posted in the Texas section but I thought some people may not read all sections. Just trying to cover my bases.

If you are willing to come to Houston, I used Dr. Spivak and I think they are awesome. Not sure if they take medicare but below is the link about him and his practice and phone numbers. Wouldn't hurt to give them a call!

Try Dr. James Davidson at Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas. He did my surgery in Feb, and has a great staff. I am not sure if he takes Medicare, but it is worth a shot. His web site is www.bscdallas.com and their # is 214-696-2890. Hope this helps.

Go to www.inamed.com and do doctor finder search, they will email you a list of all the Inamed approved doctors in your area. That can be very helpful ~Mandy
