Finding A New GP Around Sydney South

Finding A New GP Around Sydney South

I am needing to find a new gp who has a interest in mental health, anxiety and depression. I am hoping to find someone who is kind, caring and has got empathy. Me and my husband have bought a house not to far from where his parents live in milperra. Ideally I am hoping to find one no further then liverpool, Bankstown, picnic point or anywhere in between. if anyone has suggestions outside those areas I would be happy to have those recommendations as well, your help is much appreciated

Re: Finding A New GP Around Sydney South

Thank you for that I was not trying to break the rules, I really just need to find a good gp and cannot find any resources, as I have said I have gone to a couple but have not had a connection

Re: Finding A New GP Around Sydney South

Hello @RangerBaker,

If you do not currently have a GP, or are not happy with your current GP, there are a number of ways to locate one that you can feel comfortable with. Finding a GP can be as easy as asking friends, family, someone at work, or your local pharmacist. The Beyond Blue website offers a comprehensive list of practitioners who have a special interest and/or expertise in mental health issues;
