Thank you Teresa, I'm happy that you have been receiving a very good care within public! I'm in Sydney and the public hospital I've just moved in is a huge one. I filled out admission form for 8/10 mastectomy operation last week. From that point I was transferred to public system, I hadn't discussed through the matter with my doctor ( who works both private and public). It seems to be super difficult to get an appointment with her now. and the plastic surgeon I met when I was a private patient (who works both private and public) informed me that he could not even supervise my operation on 8/10. But I believe it'll work out. I hear many positive comments about private hospital!
Thank you!!
