A friend of mine recently asked me would I talk to his son who is considering going into Medicine in the near future. He figured that after fifty -five years in practice and teaching I should have some idea of what it is like. Indeed I do and I informed him I would have both positive and negative aspects to describe. In particular, my prognostications for the future of medical practitioners are not optimistic. This led me to review what I consider the requirements to be an excellent GP/FP.in the twenty-first century.
I was working on this when it occurred to me that it is much more important to hear what potential patients would consider the most important three or four qualities in a great GP/FP. I have my list, but before publishing it I want your views and we can see how they match up!
Anyone who cares to get involved, just leave me a comment and and let me know the qualities that you would require in a great Family Doctor! Maybe between us we can come up with a worthwhile list!
So come on, don't leave me without any consumer input.
Mainly events that occur in and around the medical world. Some you need to know about and some you don't. All to either inform or amuse you.
