I just went for the second time to the doctor as I needed to know if I have a problem related to the thyroid (I did a blood test at the beginning of this week), and to be very honest I felt again like the doctor doesn't really care if you are healthy or not. By saying this I'm not trying to say that he has to cry or get happy and hug me because I'm fine but I do believe that GPs should be more human, or at least give you better feedback about your health in general and how to improve your quality of life.
I hate having to compare GPs in Australia to doctors in other places but I think that patients would appreciate so much knowing or feeling that their doctors do care about them, or at least that they remember your face from last week's appointment.
I like Dr Patch Adams' way of practicing medicine and wish we had more doctors like him.
