  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

He will not recommend a doctor according to your preference for example someone who takes your insurance but rather someone who he is believes is really good and for that you can do a google search.
Rabbi Twerski from borough park is highly recommended and he will recommend based on your preferences.

first of all, refuah sheleima! Please post a name to daven to the real rofei cholim if you feel comfortable with that.
My experience has been similar, that with SB he will give you a list of who he considers to be best, second best, etc. in the field without consideration to who your insurance will cover and who will be right for your exact situation. I found Rabbi Kenigsberg from ECHO 718-859-9800 to be very helpful with putting the entire picture together. They keep track of which doctors participate in which plan and will advise if it is worthwhile to upgrade your plan to get the better doctor for your specific issue or if the ones who participate in your plan will be just as well.

I'm sorry for mixing in, but I think the approach of getting a doctor that best suits your problem is much more important than matching doctors with insurance. Very vague reason from you.

You don't need the best dermatologist in the world to treat athletes foot. If there is a good one who take your insurance you can go with him with little risk. Other times it is well worth your while to go with only the best. That advise is just as important.
