Spotting the pilot is usually easy; he tells you.

It all depends on the attitude of the AME. My AME has been our family doctor for 30 years. He delivered my grandson . we’ve become friends, as are my accountant and attorney.
He was an AF Flight surgeon before that. He flies, gives lessons and teaches ground school for free to cadets.. When I go in for a physical, he makes it clear that he is “wearing his AME hat”. Even then, there have been times when he has said to me”thats prolly something to tell your family doctor. It has worked out really well for me. I always considered my health above my ticket, so I didn’t try to hide anything. My advice, if you care; if possible make your AME your friend. Take him flying, or out for lunch. He’ll probably loosen up and have a hundred questions. YMMV “. |

My non-AME PCP has retired after caring for me since 1990. A young new DO has taken his place. I'm debating making my old AME my PCP since I'm already medically grounded and have no interest in getting my medical back, at least not until my LOM plan runs out in 22 months. I really liked him, a large % of the pilots in CLT use him. It'll be a lot easier to get to the new Doc than the AME since the new Doc is in a small facility with easy parking and the AME is in a 4 story facility with a parking garage near a major mall. But still seeing an experienced Doc who knows me and saw me twice a year prior to 2017 beats the unknown of a new Doc who's a DO (Osteopathic).
