sasfields Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Would anyone be able to pm me a recommendation for a doctor and dentist in the Gourdon/Salviac/Catus/Labastide Murat areas? I prefer to find someone who is recommended rather than just turn up and hope I've found someone good.Thank you. Sass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Welcome to the forum sasfields.Not my area so I can't help but this is like asking someone to recommend a restaurant and then not telling them you're a vegan. [:D]If you could define good in relation to your search then someone may be able to help.Me, I like them brusque and to the point, no messing about just tell it to me straight Doc!

sasfields Posted September 27, 2007 Author Share Posted September 27, 2007 Well, OK, but in the UK if I moved to a new area I would ask the neighbours which doctor they use and would they recommend him/her. Once you get information then you make your choice based on the information received. I actually, like many women, prefer to have a female doctor but I think they are rather thin on the ground in general practice here hence the request for a recommendation.

Iceni Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I actually like many women as well, though as yet have not asked for a public recommendation. [:)]When it came to choosing a doctor we just went to the nearest.Johnnot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie34 Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 I can recommend Dr J.L.Baron, 11 Rue Fricasse, 46300 Gourdon. Tel: 05 65 41 21 76.His English is excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickel Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Hello,Maybe by now you have found and are happy with your new doctor - if not, my only advice would be choose someone near -you never know if you may need them to make a house call in the night - in the rain- in the snow etc etc........ just a thought.

moggie Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 A recent medical issue here in the North of France has highlighted a problem that I'd never thought about before.What do you do if you need to see a doctor, or ask a doctor to do a house visit out of normal hours, ie. a saturday afternoon? My daughter was recently ill and as I couldn't get hold of my own doctor I contacted the number 15 to ask advise about what to do. I was told to go to a "maison medicale" which was attached to the hospital A & E dept.There was an extremely long wait, and the actual doctor we saw was not very good. I got the general feeling he really didn't want to be there!So, what do you all do in SW France (although I am sure it depends purely on area) in a medical emergency?I am particularly interested in and around the Gourdon area as that is where we will be near.

Clair Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 There should be a doctor on duty at weekends and they are usually listed in the local papers and at pharmacies.Ours work on a rota and whenever someone needs a doctor at weekends, a tel call to their usual medical surgery will automatically be diverted to the doctor on duty.

Tony F Dordogne Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Same here Clair - tho we also have the doctors home numbers so in the event of a real emergency, we can always ring them at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
