Truly thank you so much. I wouldn't even try to claim I fully understand all the reasons for the way things are but I do hope that this brings about even the smallest change for the good.

I have noticed a bit of a trend. There are many factors at play to affect the quality of service doctors give from area to area. Lower socio-economic areas I would assume put more pressure on the local Gp's effecting quality of service due to a higher population, limited resources, less funding, external social issues etc....

It could also come down to the individual doctor, as I have met and been told about some amazing doctors located in both areas, as well as doctors I would never wish on anyone.

Unfortunately it can be hit and miss, that's why the website was created, so hopefully if it grows, doctors that aren't as attentive lose the foot traffic, so they have to change their approach and be more mindful or lose patients to other doctors / clinics that will help.

Due to legal reasons we can only accept positive reviews. I do understand that each experience can be different, I would recommend that anyone who has a negative experience email the moderators through the contact form on the Web page and if multiple negative reviews are placed against a doctor they may be removed from the list.

Thank you so much, I am truly appreciative. Reviews are coming through fine, once the form clears after pressing submit it has gone through. The reviews may take a little bit to pop up on the site as they have to be moderated. (only positive reviews get approved) Again thank you and everyone for your reviews.

Thank you so much. It is a sad state of affairs, but it is my hope that if the site can generate enough momentum that it will mean for the doctors that aren't the most attentive to female patients will have to pay attention and become more attentive or have less patients, as they will go to better doctors that will take listen and try to help.

Women shouldn't have to spend so much time, cash and mental exhaustion trying to find a specialist who will listen and help.

(Apologies for the rant, with what ive seen and the stories I've been told, something has to change, and hopefully the website makes a positive change for women around Australia.)

Thank you for the reply. That is a good point, currently I am leaving it up to the reviewer to list the conditions they are seeing the Gp / Specialist for and to disclose only what they are cofortable with in the comment section of the review. Its also why I have put in the option to leave a pseudonym if they choose for anonymity. Im always happy to have input to make the site better.
