Would just like to say thanks for the blog roll. This is a pretty comprehensive list of Aussie Bloggers that helped me both on a personal level and when thinking about what I want to do with my own blog.
Cheers,
Aaron
@Aaron: Glad you like it. I will add your blog to the blogroll as well.
Just a caveat – a doctor who gives in to your every demand is not necessarily a good doctor. Having seen a two year old who had had thirty-seven courses of antibiotics in her short life, and being told by the father that he would be taking her to see the doctor who ‘understood when she was sick’, I would say that a doctor who is not a pushover is more likely to be a good doctor. Markers of concern are a willingness to prescribe antibiotics or sleeping tablets; commencing antidepressants and advising the recipient to return ‘in a month’; failing to explain the reasons for investigations and referrals.
My suggestion? Ask the receptionist at your local emergency department for a recommendation. Emergency departments know who the quacks are. And register with a large group practice if possible, and see a different doctor each time for your first few visits.
