I need a new GP. Help!

I think I need to find a new GP. Not an easy thing to do though. Can anyone recommend a good GP in the L35 area? One that will listen to me seriously and take my medical/family history into account.

I hope there is one out there.

Recommendations via private messages please, in accordance with posting guideline #25, thank you.

111Angel, I hope you've had some feedback via private messages. If not, perhaps you could check out reviews on GP websites in your area to help you find a new practice. I will caution you that most GPs will stick to the BTA guidelines on diagnosing hypothyroidism and most rely totally on blood tests to do this.
