Not got anything to do with the accident then?

2 years later...her foot hurts walking/running so off to the docs again, GP looks at foot, wiggles it about and states 'there's nothing wrong with your foot, just walk in stiffer soled shoes'...erm...can't put any weight on it, 10 minutes later he agrees to refer her...to a podiatrist which has a 6 month waiting list?!
We paid to see a foot specialist who diagnosed norton's neuroma and cut out 3.5cm growth on the nerve!!

Surprisingly we refuse to see this GP anymore!!
So if you've got a foot problem go and pay and see a foot specialist.

Why would we as runners expect our GP to sort it out? G stands for "General".
