I know how you feel, My boyf and I are looking to move house soon, but can only look in our area as my doctor is so brilliant I dont wanna change and risk getting a not so understanding doctor!

So i know how you feel, maybe you can give the surgery a call and explain the situation or maybe they wil be able to put you in touch with another good doctor?

I know how you feel as im getting confortable at my docs, and I know i wouldnt wanna change - Ive had to change dentists but havnt been to the new one yet as im too scared!

Maybe give the new surgery a ring and explain the situation and have a chat to them to put your mind at ease, or take a drive to the surgery and familiarise yourself with the building before you make the appointment to go.

Hi Sue,

Maybe you could talk to your current doctor and see if they can recommend someone in your area?

Sue - I'm sure they will be able to find a nice doctor for you who will understand what you are going through. Good luck with it all!! :D

Hi Sue

Do you know anyone living in the area you are moving to? If so perhaps they could recommend a good doctor.

I know it is unsettling having to change but you might find a really good doctor in your new area.

Hi Sue,
Sorry you are having a worrying time right now. I understand how you are feeling about 'changing' doctors, but i believe they all have their limited areas they have to stick to...Before you go along to register, please ring the nurse and let her know exactly how you feel, i think they just do the basic tests (blood pressure, urine, etc.) which the nurse will be able to do, if you let them know in advance they should be able to accomodate you by arranging a time which you will suit you, maybe when it's not too busy, do tell them though, most people will help if you let them know the set-up?

I had a fab doctor in Sheffield and then I had to move down south. I thought I would never find another great doctor but I have !

I am sure you will soon find one that you get on with and can trust.
