I’ve mentioned it before, but my new gp is fantastic. She listens to everything I say, she hasn’t tried to bullshit me on anything. I stuck with my old shit gp for far too long. Literally wasting my life. If you’ve got a shit gp, at least roll the dice and try a new clinic if you’re able. Pay the transfer fee and forget the headache. They’re not all grumpy arrogant wankers.
I’m having this dilemma too, current GP clinic has had some changes and the doctors I liked best have gone or have reduced hours so hard to see. Been going there over 10 years. Can I be bothered to look for somewhere new and start all over again, and maybe would land on another mediocre clinic anyway. Your positive experience makes me want to have a look around.
It’s not starting over. You get your records transferred. Think of it more like changing school between yr8 and yr9, it’s a bit different but it’s the same thing still. Better than keeping on with the bad service, hoping the abusive relationship gets better. No one else can advocate for you in this situation.

Having a good GP (or GP clinic) is such a comfort.
Happy for you mate
