I suppose I could ring but others may see this and get the message.

Dr Freeman is off to the EASL conference with GJ. Well done guys. Fantastic stuff.

I have a friend who wants to have an appointment with JF for a cure, quite soon. Is there another doctor at FIX that can help, or should we wait a week or two?

Also, we would like to know if the scripts are sent electronically and particularly would like know if there is chemists in Darwin who are willing to supply these drugs from FIX prescriptions.

Thanks in advance.

When I was trying to get an appt with Dr. Freeman there were none available on GP2U, so I made an appt with Dr. Joshua Devsam and he was great and very easy to talk to. You don't need to wait if he is available don't hesitate, get him to get his cure started asap.
My script was sent to my email and I was easily able to print it out and also to forward it to the pharmacy. #flower

I don't know about chemists in Darwin. I personally got my script filled through Kingswood Pharmacy and Adam is the man to talk to there. Good luck!

Hi Johnboy,

As CC2B says, Dr Joshua Devsham works with Dr Freeman at GP2U.
For the script, your pharmacy may want to see a hard copy due to the nominal "full price" of these scripts in Australia (obviously you only pay the PBS price). If that is the case then GP2U will express mail a copy to either you or direct to the pharmacy of your choice so should be 24 hours assuming you are in the immediate Darwin area.
