For General Practitioners, this study concluded that people typically only travel about 18 minutes. So, a good rule of thumb is to select a primary care physician that is located near you, somewhere between 15-30 minutes away. For more specialized care, you may need to travel considerably further, but look for specialists within 45 minutes of your home in Arizona, US if possible.

    In recent years, many General Practitioners  have also adopted telehealth, also commonly called telemedicine, which is the use of digital technology to provide or supplement patient care. Telehealth can help reduce the burden of physical travel to your General Practitioner in Arizona, US. You might wish to consider contacting your General Practitioner’s office to learn about the telehealth options they offer, as well as your insurance provider.
