In praise of GP yes you heard it here. New GP called me to say she has latest sputum result. Explained it to me in detail

Asked what my advice had been from respiratory team as they had results also. I explained team had not contacted me and l was managing as best l could. Her next words were l think you better come in so l can have a look at you !!!! Pseudonyms appear to be responding to gentamicin but l would like to make sure we are not missing any underlying symptoms. I was literally speechless. I ca not praise this GP enough and will be writing to the Practice manager to tell her what a wonderful Dr she is. After 2 years of seeing no one except for disastrous hospital stay someone is at last looking beyond the obvious. So many times because of on going lung conditions medical staff do not look for anything else. Meaning if something is found it can be too late to treat So a very big thankyou to an on the ball GP think l will keep this one x

That is excellent news great you are seeing the GP. Hope all goes well xx

[sassy59]

She’s definitely a keeper Delamere and I’m so pleased you’re being well cared for. Xxxx

[Damon1864 Volunteer]

Strewth! Are you sure it wasn’t a dream?

[Delamere in reply to Hidden]

I know had to pinch myself several times .Just the wicked witch who guards entrance to get past on Monday butcl have all wkend to get ready for that. I will have a sit down outside surgery a big dose of my inhaler then into battle with enough breath to argue oh the fun

[Thepainterswife in reply to Delamere]

🤣😂🤣. I thought GP’s were extinct , I’m amazed you’ve found one 😃. Great to hear your good news x

[skischool in reply to Thepainterswife]

One was recently discoverd in the arctic tundra and once thawed out he will be available for consultation if you can get past his frozen receptionist.😂

[Thepainterswife in reply to skischool]

😃wow they’re popping up all over the place , now if we can just keep the receptionist frozen while we sneak past …🤔😂

I am lucky enough to have a similarly proactive GP, and it makes all the difference doesn’t it? I rang mine on Monday for our monthly check in to discuss a few things which I thought were relatively trivial and next thing I know I had an appointment yesterday. I now have an appointment for a gastroscope in a couple of weeks, an appointment with the nurse next week. I have been having worsening problems with eating so it’s not difficult to work out his reasoning. I just hope he is wrong, as I really don’t need anything else. When our doctors are good it makes all the difference because you know you have support when you need it . All the best xx

[Delamere in reply to Carnival567]

It is so nice to hear positive things about GPS. Hope all goes well for you

[Katinka46]

Great news. And I am delighted that you are writing to the practice manager. Thanks are never wasted.

[Oshgosh]

That’s fantastic

[Eastend555]

Yes she is an exception to the rule which is very nice for her patients

But most people are lumbered with Doctors who just don't care

Wish you well

[Danielmystar]

Wow thats brilliant shows that some Dr's really do care .

[Kristicats]

Well done that GP she certainly should be praised for doing her job.

[ninelives]

Wonderful so happy for you

[MoyB]

So glad you have found a pro-active GP! Hope they get you sorted out soon. xx Moy

[Walkwalkwalk]

That is such good news. My GP is also supportive and I have to work around her part time hours. That is worth the hassle most of the time. I hope it all gets better for you.

[Digger0]

Excellent. My GP is good as well!

[JaneChapple]

Wow that is fab. We all need one like her!😎

[Straddie]

What a great GP. It makes all the difference. My GP is also excellent, but I have had uncaring ones in the past. Sometimes it is just the fact that someone listens to you and takes you seriously. I told my GP if she ever moves from here, I will be moving with her.

[12345pink]

Wish all GPS were like her. Absolutely fantastic.

[HollyBoyd]

Such good news for you. Let's hope she stays in the practice xxx

[Sops]

Wow, seriously impressed and envious, good to know there is a good GP who contacts you. Not happening here. Hope you will receive support now!
