Reassuring to an oldie GP-UK lurker to hear that home visits have not
totally vanished in the mists of time!
This list seems to me unique- poetry, personal loss, clinical case
discussions, techie tips,
IT masterclass, politics and disilluson, travel/ time-off advice, practical
tips and contacts for those who
want to change their lives from list members who HAVE found greener grass
etc etc
We can even discuss the principles of practice, blow our tops, confess our
frailty in an honest
list where we respect ( and care) for each other,
We often know each other better than colleagues we speak to every day.
I don't know what Declan Fox LOOKS like- but I sure know his email voice!
Quantity of postings doesn't necessarily equate with quality...I often feel
inhibited from posting as not
a GP..but I think this list is a true gem amongst many fakes.
