Any Body Knows a Good Doctor around Inner West Area (Marrickville NSW) Specially for Kids?

I have visited so many doctors around inner west and left disappointed. All I have encountered are the kinds of doctor who are more for money than diagnosing or caring to find root cause of the problem.

So asking community for recommendations preferably bulk billed ones.
Or is there any other forum site where I can ask or find about such information.
Much appreciated.

Sorry guys it's inner West Sydney. Marrickville. But I am open to drive around other suburbs at inner west.

    Unfortunately, the way the bulk billed system is now; most doctors who bulk bill will look at getting patients in and out in under 10 minutes. If you want someone who will spend more time to really look at your issues, look for a good family practice and they are unlikely to bulk bill.

    Seriously, which city? Look at the top, does it say 'SydneyBargain' or 'PerthBargain' up there? No, no it doesn't.

    Inner west in which state?

  • If your kids go to school, or pre-school, asking your question of their friends' parents may get the best response, and one that doesn't involve you driving all over the western suburbs. Good luck!

    • He does not go to school yet :( And pre school is near my office and not where I live.

  • I'd be happy with a good GP for any age.

    It's a shame that so many great problem solvers never pursue medicine. And only a fraction of the ones that do become GPs.

      Awful hours, lifestyle and sick people are not fun to be around.

      It's also not nice to get abused every other day by dirt bags or patients who get their medical info from google and treat it as gospel.

  • No

  • Get in contact with the local maternal health nurse. They will be able to recommend one.

  • Advertise on Gumtree for a GP in training, great rates!

  • Sorry this isn't in your area, but I can vouch for Dr Christine at "the children's doctor" in kellyville. The clinic there is fabulous, but there is an out of pocket expenses. And it's worth the travel, depending on the problem.

    Otherwise get a referral from your gp for a paediatrician

  • I would recommend Dr Patrick Ngo at Wolli Creek. When I’ve taken my pre school age kids there he always takes the time to make them feel comfortable. I like him. Seems like he genuinely cares and doesn’t rush through consults like medical centres do. He bulk bills for kids under 16. http://www.nowellmedical.com.au/

  • Hi,
    You can try Dr Sue McCully at Garner’s St Medical Practice in Marrickville, take both my kids there. She is very patient and explains things thorougly. Goodluck!

    EDIT: she bulk bills for kids under 16 however charges for adults can’t remember how much though!
