Implicitly – but then again we have had the one GP for many years and he knows all of us and our problems. That doesn’t seem to happen in the big medical clinics these days, so why would you trust someone you haven’t seen much especially if you have a hospital nearby.

If you read the research article behind the headlines the results clearly show that only 2% of parents aren’t very confident in their doctor. And 89% are completely or mostly confident. Don’t believe the scare mongers and the media hype and make sure you take your child to the GP when you need to. As we can see from other comments (and the actual results from study) parents DO trust their GP.

I love our GP clinic. All except one Dr are fantastic and we just don’t bother with the dodgy one.

Yes I trust my GP. I also dare to question her when I need answers or have different expectations.

I wonder why? And why they don’t find one they do trust.

I trust my GP and if I didn’t I’d get a second opinion.

I switched from our local GP to someone in the next town as I wasn’t confident in our GP. The new clinic I take my children to are wonderful.

I can understand this as and have come across a few that are not up to standard.

I don’t have any problem at all with my GP. He’s always very helpful when I go to him.

I trust my GP with my life, he has saved me more than once, he is a brilliant man
