BEFORE considering an injection or if you as a patient have been recommended for an injection by your treating doctor, come for a second opinion at Mandurah Doctors and Lakelands Doctors surgeries.
The doctors surgeries offer manual therapy and tailored exercise for patients that may solve the problem without painful injections.
Mandurah Doctors has been running for 10 years and Lakelands Doctors has been running for two years.
Doctor Ramadan offers neck, back, shoulder and hip pain management for chronic pain sufferers and Lakelands surgery doctor Anna Janowicz Bach offers paediatrics, women’s and men’s health, skin checks and general family medicine.
When a patient sees a physician for a second opinion, did you know the second opinion has a tendency to sound smarter than the first opinion?
This is a well-recognised phenomenon, but in reality the second opinion may not be the best one.
So, the question is when should you get a second opinion?

Certainly if you are not comfortable with the first doctor or treatment for any reason, then seeing another doctor for an opinion is a good idea, though if your personal goals are different from the doctor’s, choosing another for a second opinion is often difficult.
Both surgeries offer bulk-billing for all pension card holders, health care card holders and children under 16.
There are five doctors at the Mandurah surgery, including Dr de beer who attends to the nursing homes in the area.
A Fremantle orthotics doctor attends the surgery every second Thursday and a diabetes educator comes to the surgery every second Wednesday.
