Hello
Everyone,
Here we are with our latest updates and news for March 2008.
Well where do I start?
There has been that much happening at Doctors4U with more
and more Doctors joining our listings every day and with e-mails
from all over as usual. The latest today from Chile. We have
gone Mobi as well, which I will explain later.
Many of our fellow Australians go on holidays overseas and
need contact their Doctor in cases of emergency for details
of previous medications, treatments etc. And to be able to
find all our Directories on line from the other side of the
World, complete with Telephone number and if a paid listing,
fax, Web site and or e-mail address is of great benefit to
those Doctors in the country they are visiting. In fact in
some cases could save a life! That is why our Directories
are just so important to the Health and well being of many.
And yet, as I said last month many of the Doctors practicing
here in Australia will not support us by paying the smallest
of fees. I just cannot comprehend when they are supposed to
be in the business of saving lives.
Doctors4U® is now into its seventh year on the Internet
with the Management spending many thousands of dollars out
of their own pockets, to continue this very important service.
As we now say " Doctors4U
Medical Directories - Designed By Caring People - " For
Caring Health Professionals." And we are
so grateful to those caring health professionals who do support
us to provide this much sought after service.
Obviously Google feel to have Medical records on line and
available is the way of the future because in the US they
are testing an online storage bank where individuals can store
and access their medical records. The electronic system will
allow patients to control their records and interact with
multiple physicians, healthcare service providers and pharmacies.
That is in the US. You can read more about it here
.
Mobi - Have you heard
of it? Well here is some info. There are four times as many
mobile phones as there are PCs, and 1.8 billion people
already have access to the mobile Web. Make no mistake,
"mobile" is the wave of the future and MOBI domains
are playing a key role in that wave. The world's first Internet
domain specific to mobile devices. MOBI names have already
been registered across 104 countries in just the first few
months of availability.
High-end auto brands like BMW and Ferrari have their own MOBI
sites. So do Scandinavian Air lines and Hilton Hotels. Even
ESPN, Maxim and CNNMoney have gone mobile. A site can be accessed
via cell phone, SmartPhone, Windows Mobile Device and RIM
device (you DON'T need an iPhone to use MOBI).
With 2.2 billion cell phones in use today, mobile is
the wave of the future.

OBESITY A lot has been reported lately about obesity with
Children.
We include the following with the compliments of the Governments
HealthInsite news letter:
A lesson in healthy lunchboxes
The
Australian newspaper recently reported on a study done by
the RMIT University's Parenting Research Centre that highlighted
an urgent need to help educate parents to prepare healthier
lunchboxes. The preliminary findings of the study revealed
that almost three-quarters (72%) of children did not have
any salad or vegetables in their lunchbox, and almost half
(48%) had their total recommended daily amount of junk food
(such as chocolate, chips, or cake) just in their lunchbox.
The
study looked into the lunchboxes of 170 students aged five
and six at five schools spread across Melbourne. RMIT University
researcher, Dr Leah Brennan, said that the results were very
worrying, especially given all of the available information
and media campaigns focussing on healthy eating. We need to
be doing something to help parents prepare a healthier lunchbox
that has more vegetables, and fewer serves of extra foods,
she said.
The
NHMRC Dietary Guidelines for Children and Adolescents in Australia
incorporating the Infant Feeding Guidelines for Health Workers
recommends encouraging children and adolescents to eat plenty
of vegetables, legumes, fruit, wholegrain cereals, and to
include lean meat, poultry, fish, milks, cheese, yoghurt,
and water in children's diets. The Guidelines also recommend
limiting saturated fats, salt, and sugars.
They are obtainable here

National
Skin Cancer Awareness Campaign
The Australian Government has launched a new phase in its
National Skin Cancer Awareness Campaign. The 13-24 year age
group is the primary target audience for the campaign because
it is this group that has been least likely to use adequate
protection, and has the highest frequency of sunburn.
The
Campaign aims to make young people aware of five effective
ways to protect themselves from the sun:
seek
shade, wear sun-protective clothing that covers as much of
your body as possible,
put on a broad brimmed hat that shades your face, neck and
ears
wear wrap-around sunglasses
apply SPF30+ broad-spectrum water-resistant sunscreen every
two hours
The
media release, Don't let your time in the sun catch up with
you has more details about the campaign. Click

Ovarian
Cancer Awareness Week was from the: 24 February
- 2 March 2008
However
as this is a very important issue with many women not being
aware of the warning signs.

Hello
Everyone,
Well
here we are again with February almost gone.
Firstly I would like to mention the floods in Northern Queensland.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. And to all those
entire wonderful Emergency people. All special people who
give their services for free!
Remember there is assistance available through the Federal
Government to all those people who have been adversely affected.
For more information on eligibility or if you have any enquiries
please visit the Centrelink
website or contact the Australian Government Flood Assistance
hotline on 180 2333.
You will find application forms and more on the Centrelink
Web site.
Also full marks to our RACQ for agreeing to pay any claims
to those affected. Let's hope the other Insurance companies
follow the RACQ's lead. These people have been through enough
without having to endure more stress, wondering if their Insurance's
are going to settle their claims or not.
We have been so busy as usual with our Doctors4U®
Directories. We are receiving numerous enquiries daily from
all over the world. Many from visitors visiting our shores.
Many enquiries are from people looking for Doctors and other
Health Professionals who just cannot find what they are looking
for in Yellow or White pages. That is why they contact us.
And they say looking to find a Doctor in White pages is absolutely
hopeless!
I quite believe them. One person recently told me he tried
to find a Doctor by name and location and the results that
came up were unbelievable. There was everything from Radio
doctor to Pool doctor and many other Doctors. And none for
the actual Doctor he was searching for. Yet he is definitely
in the area searched. I just did a similar search and 100
different names came up - even to a windscreen repairer.
It is no wonder our Directories and so popular. You can search
by name, location and Specialty and Doctors Bulk billing.
And of course if looking for a Chemist by location.
Yet many Doctors write to us for a listing and as soon as
we mention a small fee we never hear from them again! Can
you believe it? I am amazed and disappointed because we are
providing an important and useful service to the Community.
We are now into our seventh year - Because we care! And we
care for others other wise we wouldn't still be here.
Yet some Doctors will spend many hundreds of dollars for an
ad in Yellow pages where it may never be seen like a listing
in any one of our Directories. I feel people these days look
first for the Internet before they turn to a printed reference
material. The number of people on the Internet as of January
this year, in Australia alone, was in excess of 15 million
and increasing daily. Any listings in our Directories are
also Tax deductible.
Our Directories are now so popular
with people. In recent times we have received
e-mails enquiring if those Doctors that are not in our Directories
are as capable as those that are.
Here is one we received. Senders name not included for various
reasons.
" I was wondering if you don't find a doctor on your
list, are they still a good qualified doctor?"
These are the type of e-mails we are receiving. As well as
many others looking for Plastic Surgeons and recomendations.
However as we say we cannot make any recomendations. All have
to make their own decisions.
The Sleeping Pill Stilnox
has been in the news lately with the untimely passing of Heath
Ledger. We have included some information here
about Stilnox.
We
are still receiving many enquiries from Doctors as well as
Nurses from overseas, wishing to work in Australia.

Hello
Everyone,
Well
here we are again with Christmas almost upon us after a wonderful
year at Doctors4U of helping the Community.
We have helped thousands of people
find Chemists and Pharmacies, Doctors, after hours Doctors,
as well as Bulk billing Doctors and Specialists.
We have been providing this service every day of the week, 24x7
for almost 6 years now. And with Mobile phones being able to
connect to the Internet the demand for our Services and various
Health Professionals is absolutely awe-inspiring.
We
receive many emails in appreciation of our services telling
us how much better and easier it is to search our Directories
in preference to Yellow or White pages. I feel we must agree.
I know that many people give up on both Yellow and White pages
in sheer frustration.
For
you people looking for Pharmacies and to make it easy for you
to locate a Chemist or Pharmacy we list them in every Capital
City, as well as Cairns, the Gold Coast and Launceston. We list
them by location.
Speaking
of Pharmacies and the Internet, I feel I must mention again
and warn you there are many fake on line pharmacies. Some who
in fact have been using our name to give themselves credibility.
The fake online pharmacies or chemists, as I
call them, are unscrupulous
persons who
use the Internet and Spam emails to offer drugs and medicine
at very cheap prices. Even without the need for a prescription
from a doctor.
They
are sending out Spam email designed to trick you into placing
an order and giving your credit card details. They charge
your card, but your order never arrives.
So please be very cautious and on the look out for these Spam
emails.
Osteoarthritis.
The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare
has recently released a new book about Osteoarthritis. It
has been written for anyone who wants to learn about osteoarthritis,
including people who have osteoarthritis, their families and
friends. You can read about it on the Government's Health
Web site by Clicking
here
Babycino - A Therapy
A
report from the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare
(http://www.aihw.gov.au/>,
stated that more than 200 of Victoria's very premature babies
have been having tiny drinks of caffeine to reduce their chances
of cerebral palsy and cognitive disabilities.
The
report noted that caffeine was the first treatment ever shown
to reduce disabilities common in severely premature babies.
Very premature babies tend to forget to breath and drop their
oxygen and heart rates, but if given caffeine, they have far
fewer of those pauses and the time they need on a ventilator
is reduced.
The babies from the Royal Women's and Mercy Women's hospitals
took part in a five-year trial involving more than 2000 pre-term
births in Australia, the US, Canada, Europe and Israel. The
baby's chance of death or disability drops 6% when having
caffeine.
The
results of the trial have been so successful that daily doses
of caffeine are now routine treatment for Victorian babies
as tiny as 500g, mixed with milk or given through an intravenous
drip.
This will be my last Notice Board posting for this year and
we will be back in 2008!
Keep those emails rolling in because we love to receive praise.
It helps and we do ask those Doctors and Chemists who are
not in our listings to please support your Directory!
Remember, listing with us in Australia's
own Medical Directories can be an additional and very useful
way of helping the Community.

A
Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year from us all at Doctors4U®
Hello
Everyone,
Here
I am again with our Notice Board postings. My apologies for
the lateness however as usual we have been extremely busy
with e-mail from all over the world. People who go on holidays,
fall sick while away and need contact their Doctor and in
many cases their Pharamcist.
People looking for employment from overseas continue to think
we are an employment agency as well, so all in all many hours
are spent on answering and sorting e-mails. Then of course
we have all that SPAM! Even though it is unlawfull to Spam
we still keep receiving many hundreds a day. As we often say
here at Doctors4U the precious time consumed in sorting through
this Spam by many Health Professionals and their staff could
be better spent on other things. Where if they had an Extended
listing or an Enlarged
listing in one of our Directories they would get
wonderful exposure and at the same time not be hassled with
daily Spam mail.
As
mentioned in my last posting We DO NOT SELL MEDICATIONS
OR WATCHES!
Unscrupulous
persons using OUR E-MAIL ADDRESS
at Doctors4U to try and
give themselves some authenticity some claiming we are the
registered supplier of Viagra!.
One
in particular from Canada. Yet on their own Web site they
even provide a form to lodge complaints about Spam and any
illegal e-mails, all of which is obviously a farce.
They send out millions of e-mails in our name hoping to receive
orders for Viagra, Celebrex and other drugs at discount prices.
And once the orders are received they are charged to a person's
card and never filled! So everyone
- Please be vigilant and never ever fall for these scams.
Then
there are fake on line pharmacies. Fake online
pharmacies or chemists are Unscrupulous
persons who
use the internet and spam emails to offer drugs and medicine
at very cheap prices and even without the need for a prescription
from a doctor.
Most
of this type of spam email is designed trick you into giving
your credit card details which they will use to your detriment.
Or they may even download damaging files onto your computer.(like
spyware and others)
Even if you actually do receive the products that you order,
there is no guarantee that they are genuine. And if not they
could easily be detrimental to your health! So people please
be aware and be extra cautious. You
can be assured that all those
Pharmacies and Chemists listed in any of our Directories
are genuine.
They will also require a current prescription before they
will send out any medicine that requires a script.
The
Australian Government have a Web site on
scams where you can check and also report any scams
to them. To see their link on fake on line Pharmacies and
the things to look for please Click
here
Weight
loss scams is another. They are also mentioned
on the Government site and
well worth a look.
I
mention again the Australian Government Health Site as it
is a wealth of information for Health Professionals and others
alike.
It is an Australian Government Initiative and it provides
Australians with a 'safe' place to find health
information and it's free of charge to anyone with internet
access.
They
provide posters, brochures and even fridge magnets free of
charge to health professionals. Doctors can even obtain a
supply for their Surgeries to hand out to their patients.
When researching information on various health matters it
is just so important to have the correct information and this
site is the place to find it. You can see the site by Clicking

Hello
Everyone,
Well this time I
again start with a warning to everyone. Please be aware!
Unscrupulous
people are continuing to send out Spam e-mails in our name
in an attempt to get people to purchase medications, vitamins
and even Watches.
There are unscrupulous people everywhere and the Internet
is certainly no exception. From medications to lottery winnings
- you will find them all here on the Internet! The latest
are now using OUR E-MAIL ADDRESS
at Doctors4U to try and
give themselves some authenticity.
One in particular from Canada. Yet on their own Web site they
even provide a form to lodge complaints about Spam and any

- Please be vigilant and never ever fall for these scams.
The
Australian Government have a Web site on
scams and it can be seen by
Clicking here
Maybe it is part of the hazard for having a number of very
popular Medical Directories on the Internet.
Every
day more Australians turn to the Internet for health related
information, yet studies continue to confirm the
variable quality of health information available.
Many sites list Google ads. Many people on seeing those ads
feel they are genuine and part of the Web site they are viewing.
When in fact this is not true. Many take what they read on
the Internet as gospel! Often Web site owners have these ads
to make money because every time someone clicks on a "Google"
ad they get paid.
You
will never ever find this type of ad on our sites or in any
of our Directories for this reason. And we have strict guidelines
for any one wanting to advertise their business in any of
our Directories. We will not list a business that is not prepared
to display their ABN number because we feel if you are genuine,
you should at least list your ABN. And we always insist on
a street address and a telephone landline. We have refused
many a listing over time for this reason.
HealthInsite an Australian Government
Initiative provides Australians with a 'safe' place
to find health information and it's free of charge to anyone
with internet access.

Hello Everyone,
Well this time I start with a warning to
everyone seeking to purchase Medications and in fact anything
from the Internet!
There are unscrupulous people everywhere and the Internet
is certainly no exception. From chain letters to lottery winnings
- you will find them all here on the Internet! The latest
is unscrupulous people now using OUR E-MAIL ADDRESS
at Doctors4U to try and give themselves some authenticity.
One in particular from Canada. Yet on their own Web site they
even provide a form to lodge complaints about Spam and any
illegal e-mails, all of which is obviously a farce.
They send out millions of e-mails in our name hoping to receive
orders for Viagra, Celebrex and other drugs at discount prices.
And once the orders are received they are charged to a person's
card and then never filled!
So one and all, please be aware and never ever attempt to
purchase anything from the other side of the World using your
credit card unless you know they are reputable.
In fact even here in Australia I would be most cautious.
There are so many businesses out there that will not even
display their ABN number, yet alone a street address and many
just operate from a mobile telephone. Daily we receive requests
to exchange links and most we refuse because if they are not
prepared to display their ABN number as well as a street address
and telephone landline we will not even consider them.
Unfortunately at the present time people can send e-mails
using other peoples' addresses other than their own and nothing
can be done to prevent it. Hopefully this can be rectified
very soon and we look forward to that day.
The Australian Government have a Web site on scams and it
can be seen by
Clicking here
As usual we are receiving heaps of e-mails daily from all
over. Many from people who go overseas then need to contact
their Doctors for copy records and other information. We have
to keep re-iterating that we are a listing service only! We
cannot obtain peoples' personal records. We cannot and will
not recommend any Medical Practitioner or Hospital.
We have even had requests to make appointments for patients.
We have people enquiring about Diving test examinations and
many people from overseas seeking information about Plastic
Surgeons and more.
It is possible for such Specialists to have links to their
own Web sites once they list with Doctors4U! And listing in
one of our Directories is in many cases better than having
their own Web site, and far less expensive. Remembering of
course that once they obtain a paid listing any amendments
can be made for the period of their listing for FREE! In fact
this applies to any one obtaining a listing with us - even
to the FREE ones.
Employment: We receive many enquiries
each month from Doctors overseas wishing to work in Australia.
To any Doctor contemplating such a move remember Queensland
and other states are looking for Doctors.

Hello
Everyone,
Well here we again and it's now May, 2007. Our apologies for
dragging our feet but we have been so busy trying to catch
up with listings, updates and attend our many e-mails received
daily.
I must however continue to remind people we are not a referral
Directory. In other words we cannot and will not refer any
particular Health Professional. We are a Directory for Doctors
and other Health Professionals. They may have us list them
in their locations and in some cases provide details of their
qualifications, services, fax and web site addresses. We do
provide a FREE basic Alphabetical listing and Doctors are
invited to Extend those listings to include more details to
assist you the Community.
When
we first commenced, back in 2002, we did provide FREE basic
listings in Alphabetical, Location and if a Specialist, a
FREE listing under the particular Specialty. However due to
the overwhelming demand and popularity of our Directories
this is no longer possible. Naturally with the increase in
the enormous size of our Directories our overheads have increased
as well.
To be able to continue as a viable business we now have to
charge a very small listing fee which varies from only $25
- $30 for 12 months and for this, we apologise. However as
you will realise, as much as we would love to, we just cannot
continue to list everyone for FREE and remain in business.
I must confess however, I am often amazed at the number of
Doctors who readily ask for a listing and then when told of
the small amount we must charge, we never hear from them again.
Just amazing and seeing the amount is also tax deductible
I cannot comprehend.
We
provide a very important service to the Community and this
is supported by the many e-mails we receive daily. Internet
people of today will look at the Internet every time for reference
and that is naturally increasing day by day.
We
have been told we are heaps better than Yellow pages and particularly
white pages. Have a look yourself and form your own conclusions.
White pages some describe as a night mare with Yellow not
being much better.
We
have just been so busy again this year and e-mails from all
over the world with enquiries about Hospitals, Doctors and
many other health related matters. We have had an e-mail from
Ireland and another from Holland, and many, many more from
various other countries. Even from people who have been holidaying
and gone home and wanting to pay their Medical bills.
And without our help this would not be possible.
Suicide: Back in November
we placed a link to this article about suicide on our main
Home page regarding young students and the warning issued
by POLICE. They issued a warning to parents to supervise and
monitor their children's use of the Internet and gadgets like
mobile phones.
It was reported that there had been at least three suicides
by students who attended two secondary schools in the eastern
suburbs of Adelaide.
Recently there were two more 16 year
old girls in Victoria. So we continue to provide
the link here
. This is very sad with many suicides being our young people.
Obesity has been in the news lately.
More children are overweight today than ever before.
We have placed this link here for parents. Click
