We had an appointment with the local clinic for my mother in her late 80's. They cancelled and we then went to the Emergency Department at Wonthaggi Hospital. The triage nurse was very efficient and soon we were seen by a young, kind and compassionate Dr Teak. He listened patiently to all my concerns about my mother. I thought she may have had a lung infection and I was hoping for antibiotics to prevent pneumonia. After a thorough examination, blood tests and x-ray, Dr Teak said it was just a little fluid in her lungs and that I was to recommence her Furosemide. I asked Teak to ring me regarding the blood tests. He did so a few hours later. How lucky were we to find ourselves at Wonthaggi ED. We were extremely impressed by Teak. He is a young man with a great future. Everything one would want from a doctor who cares. Your parents would be very proud of you Teak. The Wonthaggi community is very fortunate. Thank you.
"Thank you Dr Teak"
