As someone relatively new to Melbourne, one of the hardest things I've had trouble finding is a decent doctor.

I arrived 10 minutes early to be greeted by the receptionist with the following sentence "That's right, you're new *sigh*. You'll need to fill in these forms, go sit there"

As you can imagine, my concern with a medical staffer using an American emergency number to someone who was potentially in a dire situation was quite large.
