Want to bring something to my Dr's office:
I've seen this particular Dr almost weekly since June, and my last appt with them is tomorrow (aside from twice yearly bloodwork).
There are 4 women (25-50 yrs old) and 1 Dr (mid 40s, male).
I get the feeling that they're not really into cookies/cake/fattening food so much.
What would you bring?
Nothing too expensive, just a sweet "thanks for being so nice" gift. They do a great job of getting me in around my schedule...I don't ever wait when I'm there on my lunchbreak, etc.
Thanks!

Can you send them a breakfast spread one day maybe?
Or a lunch spread? Some quartered sandwiches and a pickle tray?

Re: Want to bring something to my Dr's office:
do they drink coffee? tea? I worked for years at a drs office and I would have LOVED this over the tons of cookies I received.
I would get a "good" coffee (lavazza, illy etc) an assortment of nice teas (earl grey, english/irish/scottish breakfast, green tea, chamomile, and maybe some good hot chocolate (chocolate shavings are YUM) and put it in a basket.
it's slightly decadent, but only as caloric and fattening as they want it to be. also perfect for the weather and could potentially last all winter.
you are a sweet peach for doing this.

Re: Want to bring something to my Dr's office:
Fresh fruit is always a great option -- you can do it really inexpensively ... cut up 2 pineapple, add a pint of strwaberries and put bowl of yogurt dip in the middle ... prob. less than $15.
You're too sweet! They'll appreciate anything.

Re: Want to bring something to my Dr's office:
I brought chocolates to my orthodontist office last week because I'm there every few weeks for appointments and they're always squeezing me and are great.
I do like Jessica's idea about the teas and coffee and Jess thank you again for recommending LaVazza I love it and am addicted to it. Nothing tastes as good lol

Oh....this sounds good!! You can get some nice teas/coffees/hot chocolates and biscotti. I think that appeals to a lot of people and their different tastes.

Re: Want to bring something to my Dr's office:
They have coffee/tea in the office...
I think I'll do the fresh fruit. Thanks Lea!
Or maybe even a veggie crudite with a ranch dip.
Thank you!

A big edible arrangement. Everyone I have ever sent one to has always LOVED them. They are healthy and look really nice.
