Looking at taking Greer to a paed in Welly if we can get in, as we have to wait a 3 weeks to see someone in Palmy. So who's nice? ------------- Aimee Hannah 22/10/05 Greer 11/02/08 |

Dr Robin Shaw is lovely. She has a clinic at Ropata medical centre and also works out of Boulcott Hosp. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Holy i'm kinda glad my boys don't need to see one. You would think going private it would be quicker than that. I would hate to know how long it would be to see one if it was public. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

I think we talked to the same lady (Joanna?) and she said if we get desperate the doc has to ring and they will send one tin to them. Weird.
And Becks, that is public. Apparently none of the paeds see patients privately in Palmy. ------------- Aimee Hannah 22/10/05 Greer 11/02/08 |

Oh ok, well 3 weeks is good for public but I know you want Greer to be seen asap (don't we all want that). ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |
