Good Doctor

I went to my GP surgery today for a review of all my medication, the doctor I saw was very good and understanding she listened to my chest which she explained to me was crackling and wheezy so she gave me Atrovent and Steroids to inhaler via a nebuliser I was also given oxygen later then she did loads of other checks such as blood pressure and took my pulse which I was told was a little fast.

I have been given a nasal spray to help with my hayfever.

She said she thought that I would benefit from Xolair so she has written a letter to my Resp Consultant for that to included in my treatment plan.

It was great to see such an understanding and caring doctor

That's great. Nice to see the good doctor/nurse posts recently.

Good Doctor

Nothing like a Good Doctor! Maybe you want post her office info in case others on this site live near her/him and can also benefit.

Yeah, it makes such a difference, physically and psychologically. Mine's great, except she tends to over-react when she sees me coming! - I can't think why... *whistles*

glad you had such a good experience with your doctor. it so important to feel like we are being understood.
