When my mother started needing more care I took her to the same geriatrician. I attended all appointment with my mother and with my husband, so I saw this woman at work. The training and the knowledge is important, but the basic attitude toward the elderly is probably most helpful.
I am now seventy myself. Probably not for a few years ... but I do intend to switch my pcp to a geriatric specialist as I age.
