Seattle primary care doctors

[carlh]

After ignoring doctors for most of the past decade I think I am now old enough for annual checkups. I am looking for recommendations on primary care doctors in the north Seattle area that will support an active middle aged male with good basic health advice and give me specialist referrals when I hurt myself. Any mags have someone they are happy with?

Although my main PCP of many years has recently stopped seeing patients (which I'm way bummed about, since there will now be a stranger sticking his finger up my ass), I've had a very good experience over those years at Ballard Swedish. Will see my new guy for the first time in a couple pop weeks. Everyone I've seen there including specialists has been terrific.
