HI Elaine,
You might find older ob/gyns may have dropped ob due to the long, long hours or some may have changed their focus with high insurance rates getting higher. Maybe FPs or nurse practitioners who don't deliver babies may have more time for you as well. No matter who you see, with the increasing health risks from aging, you deserve the providers complete and undivided attention (IMHO).
Good Luck!
