The DAN (Divers Alert Network) forum is for general questions about DAN. If you have a medical question, please do not post your question here, as DAN cannot give medical advice in this forum.
There are 2 places on ScubaBoard where you may ask medical related questions, but they are by no means a resource if you have a medical emergency. You can ask medical questions in our Diving Medicine forum or you can Ask Dr. Deco.
If you have or THINK you have a MEDICAL EMERGENCY please CALL DAN IMMEDIATELY

Hey DiverDAN,
I think I read someplace that DAN will supply referrals to divers looking for a doctor. I don't have a family doctor and would like to find one that is also a diver (and takes my health insurance). I don't have any health problems but I'm 50 and I know that I should be seeing a doctor every couple of years for a check-up. I don't want to pick a doctor that isn't a diver or will decide that I shouldn't dive because of my age. I live in Chandler, AZ (Phoenix area).
I went to your web site (yes I'm a DAN member) but couldn't find anything about referrals except in an emergency. Any help here would be appreciated.
DiverDan has not logged here since May 30th. You can phone DAN on their non-emergency line during business hours or email them at the Contact DAN link on their website request a referral.
