Please give me some advice/tips on choosing a great doctor?

I've decided to find a new primary care physician. When I choose doctors, I normally look for several things: education, how many years the've been practicing, any complaints/malpractice suits, etc. Is there anything else I should explore?Please give me some advice/tips on choosing a great doctor?
Make sure you are comfortable...The flow and enviornment should be soothing...not make you scared or uncomfortable...Also, take a glance at their cleanliness...I work in the dental field and I have been to many offices that shouldn't even be running...Sterilization techniques, room cleanliness, doctor's appearance...little stuff like that can tell alot...Please give me some advice/tips on choosing a great doctor?
First of all , you have to see, that doctor must be MD, and famous in his/her profetion . Must be near to you, so that you can reach him/her comfertably , and you can trust on him/her.
I heard to look for a young doc fresh out of med school just cuz he doesnt know all the tricks to get u out of the office quick. Newbies tend to spend more time with their patients and listen more.
Ultimately, the guy who graduated last in his class is still called doctor. Your primary makes most of his/her diagnoses based on the reports of tests and diagnoses of specialists that you are referred to. While your search should include those criteria mentioned above, ask around. The best way to find a good doc is word of mouth advertising. Especially if he/she is the kind of doc who spends some time with you. Good Luck
