New Family Doctor?

Postby elnickerson on Wed Jan 14, 2009 10:34 am

Hi
I desperately need a new family GP. Our current one is nice enough but she seems to miss things and I don't feel that we are getting the thorough care that we need.
Can anyone recommend a great doctor who might take on new patients?Thanks in advance!

If you do a search on here for Doctors there are a couple of links with Doctors accepting new patients. Unfortunately with the Docotrs shortage and many filled up even if someone referred you they are not taking new patients unless on this list. One list is more up to date them the other just can't rememebr which one but I'd check out both. Also the ones tha are accepting new patients are doing so if you either don't currently have a Doctor, are new to Victoria or if your Doctor is retiring. It is harder to switch Doctors if you already have one.

Dr. Issac' # is 250-220-9999. It is a clinic also so you just go in and wait when she is on, like the other patients but still worth it to have a regular GP.
