I've had five GPs in my lifetime- all average and OK. Have seen doctors at the same practice who aren't very good. Guess as with any profession there are bad workers. When do you know the doctor sitting in front to listen to your problem is not up to standard? and then good GPs have certain qualities

Shes really hard to get an appointment with though as shes always booked up
The one at home I hardly see too - she is good though.

Do you understand about infections and stuff? Mine never mentioned my infections - he had a quick look and saw they were ok.
Yeah I understood before hand, and I said to him I did... But the thing is, I'd said "I was wondering if you can refer me to counselling as my self harm is getting bad?" etc etc... and he just goes "Self harm can cause infections, and infections will mean further medical care." I was like... ermm great, yepp I know...

My GP listens to me and asks me to come back every 2 weeks and even if i cant get an appointment or need to talk i can even ring the practice to speak to her!
My doctors at home where my parents live are really bad, one started reading the wrong lot of patient names out, read out tuesday instead of monday, he was cutting of a frozen wart and started cutting through skin and I started bleeding a lot and he kept going, until I yelled in pain and he noticed the blood and another just sits and says there is a lot of that around and doesn't seem to care or bother very much.
