Default Pilot friendly AME in PHX east valley area?

My AME retired last month (McCarville) and now looking for a new AME, anyone have recommendations?

Thx

I did see his online site, think I came across it from the Pilot Hiring website, will check him out.

Any other options out there I'm stuck out in the Southeast Valley?

As an added question, is there any Doc to AVOID around here?

Thx

I'm going to be using Dr. Ross next week who took over Dr. Forred's practice as Forred retired a few months back.

Bryman is a good AME and I used Shroeder (spelling?) who is in Mesa and he was fine too.

I used Dr. Ross today. He's in central Phoenix and I'd recommend him. Painless and friendly!

Has anyone ever used Dr. Raniolo? A buddy has an appointment scheduled with him later in the month. I've never heard of him. I think he works with Dr. Bryman though. It's sad that Dr. McCarville retired. I'm considering giving Dr. Ross a try.

It is very sad. I'm not entirely sure his retirement was by choice. When I last spoke to him in January, he told me that he had lost his authorization for First Class medicals.

Last time I went there, I put the EKG pads on myself.....fella was getting pretty frail.

"Getting pretty frail" is probably an understatement...

I was looking at other threads asking about PHX AMEs and I think you were the one that said something like "anyone who uses Dr. McCarville probably has a backup in mind." Ha. That was a nice way to put it!

Raniolo is great. You're in and out in 30 minutes.
