Nordin Daniel J MD

The desk is really rude and doesn’t accept workers comp very disapointed i should not have to call another office due to a workers comp issue

I am dreading this review. Not because I don’t want to sing the praises of Dr. Nordin, on the contrary, he is a great physician (hence the 5 stars) No, I am dreading this review for the simple fact that the more word gets out about Dr. Nordin, the harder it will be to make my annual appointment. I guess I am kind of a hipster when it comes to Doctors. Once I see a bunch of rich high school kids with Dr. Nordin’s business card, I will probably go somewhere else (jk)
So let’s get down to brass tacks. What makes Dr. Nordin so special? After all a physical is a physical, right? Wrong. Rather than grab your walnuts, make you cough, then demand a 50 dollar co-​pay, Dr. Nordin takes the time out to get to know his patients. Half my health questionnaire was about my hobbies and habits. These inquiries, however trivial, can give any GP a better view inside a patients daily routine and possible health problems that may underlie a daily routine. Literally the first 10 minutes of my physical was getting to know me as a person. I found this remarkable in the US internal medicine world where doctors are paid in quantity of patients and not quality of outcomes. We then went over my labs. Turns out my bad cholesterol was low but so was my good cholesterol. I promised I would eat more bacon. He recommend fish oil. Actually, I take that back, he didn’t just recommend fish oil, he instructed me on the nutritional content of the best fish oils and which ones were rip offs. He also said to call his office if I had a question about a particular brand of fish oil. I also said I was having sleep problems and he got me an appointment with a pulmonologist in the same week.
I am overweight but my labs are all great. Having seen this he didn’t brow beat me for being overweight but rather said keep doing what you are doing. This was great because I can’t stand being brow beat by medical professionals.
I have lived in several different cities and Dr. Nordin is by far the best Dr. I have ever had. I highly recommend making him your GP.
