Who referred you?: The most logical approach to finding a primary care doctor is to start with the doctor/ provider who referred you to the liver transplant center for evaluation. Someone must have recognized the need for transplantation. That person may either be an appropriate primary care doctor or may be able to refer you. If not, try obtaining a list of "in network" doctors from your insurance carrier.

Check: County medical society check yellow pages then check with coordinator, since some special skills and communication is important to your best interest.
