    Can anyone recommend a good doctor is Brisbane?

    I'm felicity (24) & my girl friend is kate (25). We're just starting on journey to having our first child! One of our close friends has agreed to be the donor and kate is going to be the tummy mummy!
    We are trying to find a good doctor (preferably on the South side - we're in Holland Park). Kate is terrorfied of getting the blood tests, so we need to find a nice supportive doctor who will send her for an absolute minimum number of tests. If anyone could recommend someone it would be highly appreciated!
    And also if there is anyone living in or around Brisbane, we'd love to meet some girls in a similar situation! And any advice would be highly appreciated, this is all very scary and exciting!! =D

    Welcome Felicity.
    You're right - it is a very scary and exciting time.
    I can't help with the name of any doctors, but I hopefully someone will be able to assist soon.
    Good luck with your journey.

    Try the Gay and Lesbian Health Service in Highgate Hill. If thats a bit far to travel then just call they should be able to put you in touch with some people. Also you could try contacting QAHC I say they definately have some names and numbers, or the Gay and Lesbian Welfare Association. Any of these organisations will be able to put you in touch with GLBTI friendly GPs, as you will need a referral to see a fertility specialist. If its near you, Stonewall Medical Centre in Windsor is GLBTI friendly and has at least some gay and lesbian doctors (I *think* its all G/L drs but I can't be totally sure).
