Refer me to a doctor for my son?

Not what we do: This is a public information site where volunteer docs primarily in the USA answer health questions based on information you post. It does not provide scripts/referrals/notes or other forms of direct care. Contact your plan for information on how to get this done.

Sorry: We can't do that. This is not a referral service. And from 8,000+ miles away I have no idea who practices in Pretoria. Our function is to provide information about general medical situations. Not knowing your son's age, or his current medical health, I would recommend that you have him evaluated by a specialist children's doctor, a Pediatrician.

No info...: First, it isn't what this site does. We are an educational site, give advice. That being said, ANYTIME you talk about referrals in medicine, your doctor needs to know some things. Why do you feel he needs a referral? What are his symptoms? Are things getting worse? Has he traveled anywhere? Who has he been in contact with?Previously, healthy or medical problems? Then we can find you correct doc!
