"Misdiagnosis"

About: Flinders Medical Centre

(as a parent/guardian),

Was told it was eczema - my baby had an extremely high temperature. They gave my baby panadol, said it was just from heat flare up and bring them back if they get worse... sent home under 2.5 hours.

The doctor dismissed eczema and scabs completely covering my baby's body. 4 days later, no improvement.

Had a local GP visit at their first available booking.

My baby has had chicken pox the whole time.

Sick of what I believe are inexperienced doctors at Flinders Medical Centre who I feel diagnose the wrong things or have no idea. Very angry!
