Poster: A snowHead
|
My young family and I are staying in town for the season and it would be good to register with a GP for the 5 months. Ideally one that spoke english as I don't think my limited french will stretch to medical terminology.
His/Her first task would be to give my wife and I a MOT for a Carre Neige.
Thanks in advance

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Buddy1664, I'm not sure you really register with a GP in France like you do in the UK, but I could be wrong.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Buddy1664, most of the doctors speak English, the tourist office should help advise as well.

Docteur Yann Hurry, 0450540855
He is up in Argentiere, he's my GP even though I live down in Les Houches.
Good doc, Great guy and happy to speak very good English. GP + sports injury specialist
The form you need for registering is médecin traitant.

Just remember that the French are colossal hypocondriacs, and that all French medicine is based on suppositories.

Dubaian, on the contrary, they slip in without trouble, but I think the French doctors tend to have alternative means of delivery for a squeamish rosbif My son was in hospital in Innsbruck after a nasty ankle fracture and the nurse bought him a painkiller which he was about to swallow "Nein nein, das gehts hinten" she said, with suitable miming. He got the picture.
