Okay, I’ve put these out on Twitter a few times and so far it hasn’t yielded anything, so I’m posting them here. Please share your input if you have any.
1) I need to find a good upholstery shop to repair a chair from a 1973 dinette set. I originally called Victory Vintage and asked who they recommended. They gave me the name of a place in Snellville, but I’ve called them several times and they haven’t been very responsive and I’m getting fed up. I need a place that knows what they’re doing, especially with older furniture, as I need it to match the other three chairs as closely as possible.
ETA: Scratch that on the upholstery place; they just called me back and were super nice. I’m going out there on Saturday.
2) I need to find a new doctor - a general practitioner, someone I can go to for your basic once-a-year physicals and such. I have an awesome OB/GYN, and I had an awesome GP, but a few years ago she had a baby and stopped working. :P If anyone knows of a good doctor, or even a good doctor’s office (preferably in Decatur or midtown), please let me know.
I really don’t want to just open up the phone book (or Google) and choose at random with either of these!

Obviously I don’t have a clue about doctors in Georgia (aside from all of the ones at Eisenhower Medical Center sucking). BUT…
I found my fabulous doctor in Minnesota by going through the annual “top doctors” or some such nonsense issue of Minnesota Monthly. I would think there’d be a comparable publication that focuses on either Georgia or Atlanta.
Of course…I had some pretty specific requirements for my doctor. I called probably five or six different clinics/offices and essentially interviewed them over the phone, narrowed it down to two options, and went with the first one who could get me in.
Since then, I’ve sent them at least 4 new patients. I heart my doctor.
I know it’s a different sitch but, if you don’t get any solid recs, it’s a thought.
I responded on Twitter re: the GP. Here’s a link to her profile:
