I am still handed my prescriptions. On the other hand, I only have only one doctor that the NP uses a laptop. The doctor reads the paper that was printed out before he puts it into a regular paper file. I have found that the doctors that have a laptop in front of them don't lsiten as well as those that don't an still write their notes by hand. I had one doctor that couldn't take her eyes off of her laptop. I got up and walked out in the middle of an appointment and left her sitting there and never looked back. I'm 63. I remember when doctors would listen to you and look at you while you were talking to them and they were talkng to you. I also remember doctors making house calls. I have my PCP's home phone number. He knows I don't call unless it is important and he always talks to me. I've been his patient since he first went into practice back in the 80's.
