$80 including ECG, bloods and audio in Kununurra.... $120 in Darwin including ECG... $200 in Tennant Creek for a basic medical not including the ECG...

Leatherdog "ultrasound machine" ???

Many GP clinics have 12 lead ECG units now and are capable of interpreting the results. The printout has a result printed on it! I just hate the sticky stuff left behind from the gel tabs.

The trouble is the DAME appears to be becoming an endangered species. It can take weeks to be able to get an appointment in some places. I must say I ended up keeping my DAME as my GP. The medicals go alot faster now.
