The GP
GPs are a vital part of the system. They’ve always been an essential
part of the health community, and they continue to provide a continuity of
care close to home. They can do much more than simply monitor your health.
They provide active management, and they can also refer you to specialist services
and advise you about the many options that are now available to you in our
health system.
One of the best things you can do to stay healthy is to form a relationship
with a GP or a practice close to where you live. Your GP can monitor your health,
and advise you on the best course of action when specialist medical advice
or procedures are needed.
To find your nearest GP visit the Health
Services Directory on the Better
Health Channel website.
