Well I have been wating well over 7 months for an appointment to see a Dr at one of Perths majour hospitals. I have rang several times only to get an answering machine .......left my . number (as requested by message stating they would return my call that has never happend)....Well I actually got through to a real person today and was told I was on the list and would continue to be on the list for 2 YEARS!!!!!!!! What THE!!!!!!! I tikd her I was in a lot of pain and had several falls she sai that I should go to emergency department and there would be a nurologis on call NO wounder th emergency departments are always over flowing!!!! I have decided to post this on the support group too to see if it is same in other countries
