[QUOTE="zand, post: 926696, member: 85197"] My complaint is to do with the system, rather than individuals. You get to see a GP for 5 minutes and each time there's only chance to say the same thing as last time. When you go to see someone privately or an alternative therapist, they chat to you for maybe an hour during your first session. They get to know you straight away. Consequently my naturopath, who I only met 3 times knew much more about me than any of my GP's. I know time is money, but I can't help thinking if they knew their patients' history better than they would find the correct treatments more quickly and save money long term. [/QUOTE]
