No I didn't think about looking at specifically in person places, saw that they were suitable for most of my needs and that they could do remote assessments too. At my time of looking for places I actually had a very limited choice, I can't remember which ones but I did have other preferred ones but they were just not accepting at the time at all.

Wish I could be more help, the doctors definitely do just throw you in the deep end to figure it out on your own.
