Default An AME in the D.C. Area?

Can anyone recommend a good--and cheap--AME in the D.C. area who performs 1st class medicals? Thanks.

Signature at BWI, the office was previously run by a Dr. Hislop. Somebody else gives the exams now but Hislop is still the person to contact. Call Signature at BWI and they will give you the #. Very quick, very easy. $100.

This is most likely the most bizarre Dr's Office you'll ever visit, but he's a no hassle operation, and you can usually get an appointment the day you call at least for 2nd and 3rd class checks.

Dr Comunale has also helped me negotiate reporting changes in my medical status for Lasik and other issues with no glitches.

I went to Dr. Feriozi the last time I needed one. He is in Arlington, quick painless, and out the door. He has been doing it for years, and years, and years, and years.... There were award certificates on his wall from the FAA dated in the 1960s.

I have seen Dr. Stahl in Ellicott City, I think it was $85 for a first class when I went, and it was a fairly quick and uneventful physical.
