GP推荐的专科医生是按照家庭地址来分类的吗？

上次和我妈妈想去做次胃镜，GP开的bankstown hospital那个医生死活不肯给做检查。 想去找找别的专科医生。结果第二个GP也开了同一个专科医生。想问问有这方面经验的TZ。 我现在知道其他医院有个很好看肠胃的专科医生，怎么才能让GP开这个医生的介绍信呢 ？ 万分感谢，分分伺候。

if i need the referal, GP will ask me first, which specialist you want to see?
even if  you are not in medical field, you still have the right to choose which one to see and where to go .
but if you have no idea, then you have to follow GP's suggesion.

in one word

there is quiet a few sneaky things behind referral in Au

However, this is far better than what happened in China.

看样子是你妈想做胃镜，而不是公立医院里的胃肠专家认为你妈需要做。
若的确很想做，应该找私立诊所的胃肠专家做。

公立医院对可做可不做的例子多数不做，因太忙了，还有若耽误病人了也是医院的事，跟医生关系不大。
有时候私立专家也会婉拒病人，因病人太老了或有严重疾病，怕在小诊所做出事。
