Thanks Romla,
Good advice. I do feel a bit grotty, like I'm coming down with something (but I may just be coming down with something :neutral: ) I did go with the public system for everything. Public medical oncology was the only disappointment. See my previous comment in 'Newbie'. I am considering finding a private medical oncologist if I continue to feel that the public ones in my regional hospital are just too busy to read my pathology, or test results or any other important information before or at my appointments. A minute and a half vague 'chat' after an hour and a half wait in the waiting room is not confidence inspiring, and I get a different intern each time. No individualised or tailored plan. Very generic - I'm on a cancer conveyor belt. Quote: " We treat 20 to save 1". It's a numbers game to them, and I'm just a statistic. Any recommendations on NSW Central Coast? It may be worth going to Sydney.
