Our GPs are people we rely on for a lot. A visit can be as simple as a 15 min appointment to establish if our sore throat is a viral or bacterial infection, but it is sometimes the start of a long and difficult pathway of diagnosis, treatment and hopefully recovery for any one of many illnesses and injuries that could befall us.  

They play a big role in our health journey, but do we really understand their role in our well-being? 

To get insight into how to get the most from your GP, this week Francesca and Louise are joined by Melbourne-based GP, Dr Preeya Alexander, for an in-depth chat.
