Looking for a good GP

Still looking for one for a friend in Melbourne - she's just moved to Fawkner, so if anyone knows someone good around that area, it'd be great.

Thanks

Which part of Sydney are you in? I'm in Sutherland and the Drs at the Sutherland Medical Centre are great and do have bigger BP cuffs. And they still bulk bill!!

While we're here, does anyone know a good GP in Adelaide?

PM if you do (to avoid embarrassing anyone professionally).

Best,

Hi Michael,

I know your quandary, Doctors and Dentists, once you find a good one you've got to hold on tight LOL.
What area are you in? My hubby & I go to a really good GP in Banksmeadow. If that is near to you, let me know and I'll PM his details.

Cheers - Carrie.

Hi,

Is there anyone who can recommend a good GP in the Sydney area who really understands obesity? For example i am struggling to find a GP who understands that i need an x-large cuff for having my blood pressure taken. The GP i have been going to doesn't have the right size cuff and they don't seemed concerned yet they are treating me for high BP but not getting correct BP readings as they are using the wrong size cuff.

I already have a surgeon in mind and have met with him but its just the regular checkups thats giving me grief.

Cheers
Michael.
