I have four children, that require serious medical assistance and will their whole life , I've lived other places and I've never seen a poorer excuse for a hospital then Mildura's we need better!!!
I was one of the people once that couldn't access care in moranbah, heavily pregnant, couldn't receive hospital care, couldn't receive gp care, known rule, you can't have nurofen when pregnant, my ear drum burst because I couldn't obtain antibiotics. The pain was worse then child birth! Yet my husband and I pay hundreds of thousands in tax and high Medicare levels. Pathetic.
I struggled with mental health all last year. I know I would rather my best friend cry on my shoulder than kill himself. This petition should make it so that mental health is more heavily recognized.
This is such a vital service to our region. When patients have to travel so far from home for treatment and appointments at times the CCC helps take the pressure of navigating these sometimes quite difficult situations. They are also on hand to help with the life changing information delivered to the patients at various appointments. Please don’t take away our second Cancer Care Coordinator we need her
I ask the Queensland Health to reinstate the 2nd Cancer Care Nurse Position in Central West QLD ASAP. This is vitally important if cancer patients are to receive adequate treatment and support during their cancer battle to recover and regain their health in the best possible way. Cancer of any kind is a complicated, long-term disease with many aspects to it and all the resources to overcome this disease is needed, mentally, emotionally and physically.
I’ve been operated on my Charlie twice and he clearly outlined the risks both times. He treated me with great respect and he didn’t turn me away like many other doctors. This man gave me a chance when many many others said it couldn’t be done and enjoy the rest of my time remaining. He is a saint.
I'm signing because he saved my wife and gave her life back. This has allowed her to help others. Thanks Charlie 🤟 you always treat us as human beings and show such companies for others. Keep fighting, we néed you in Australian theatres. And we need Charlie now 🤟
In 2017 Charlie, operated on me to remove a pineal cyst. The growth was compressing my Tectal plate and vain of Galen. Prior to surgery I suffered unimaginable pain and a long list of debilitating symptoms. I had no quality of life and it was unbearable. Aside from my GP Charlie was the only Dr that took my symptoms seriously. Charlie clearly explained the risks of surgery and allowed me to record the consultation if I wished. So that I could review the information again after the consultation to help me decide if I wanted to proceed with surgery. After my surgery Charlie’s team refunded me some of the costs, hardly the actions of a so called greedy man! Surgery cured me of my symptoms and I live a very filling life now all thanks to Charlie. It’s devastating to know that currently Australian patients are being denied his skills in their own country and many are having to travel abroad to seek his expertise. I will be forever grateful to Charlie for giving me my life back!
