I have no problem with gp charging more expensive. it comes with shorter waiting time, more personalised service etc. and rising cost isn't helping their bottom line. a consult is now 18 to 25 bucks. seriously, with rent hitting 10k for a good spot, how u expect the gp to survive on consult charges only?

so, u want talk, also use some brains first.

my issue is with gp overcharging those who can't pay. aka my cleaner uncle
GP charges is standard. This whole thinking about oh cleaner cannot pay then should charge cheaper?

If cannot afford then dont go pte GP. Go polyclinic. Why blame the GP for charging the same for all his patients? It is not the GPs fault.

I dont see cleaner go to pte specialist in Mt E or Gleneagles and say hey I cannot afford you jolly well charge me cheap cheap for my operation?

Double standard lah you.
