What a Family Doctor is All About

Family Doctor: Dr. Ash Hrdlicka

Gotta just love Dr. Hrdlicka. He was my Grandma’s doctor, first. He then became my family doctor to my husband and myself. I remember my Grandma saying when she was in her mid 90’s she had seen a new ad for Dr. Hrdlicka starting up his practice so she phoned him up and asked if he would take on a little old lady. Instead, he got a lady with spunk and independence!

For the next several years I heard tidbits about Dr. Hrdlicka and I thought my doctor is close to retiring so I would like to have Dr. Hrdlicka as my family doctor. I went to an  appointment with my Grandma and she told Dr. Hrdlicka I was checking him out, how embarrassing. I didn’t tell her that,  but I really was.  On the day my Grandma moved into the senior home was the day I had my meet and greet with Dr. Hrdlicka. What a coincidence that was, as when they go into the senior home they have a doctor on site that they are assigned to. My grandma still thought Dr. Hrdlicka was still  her doctor.  I would give Dr. Hrdlicka some updates and show pictures of her on her 103rd birthday as she was his oldest  patient. I told my grandma I was very happy with the care I received from Dr. Hrdlicka and she said, “I know how to pick em”.  

Thank you so much Dr. Hrdlicka, you are what a family doctor is all about.💜
