Naa it' the rusty blood splatter razor blades they use to shave your chest for the ECG that has me a bit twitchy.

hahaha yeah its all a bit dodgey.

One guy wanted to see the doc open the needle for the blood tests, Dr got real s#!t at him!
A few guys get it done in Cairns.
Maybe Dr Daniels at Remurera Docters?

Dr Dave in Bulls/ Palmerston North, maybe?

He does CASA medicals, so may do PNG as well, as lots of Kiwis go up that way.

Currently there are no NZ doctors doing PNG medicals. Try Dr Litherland in Cairns--you won't catch hepatitis by merely walking through the front door and you get a brand new vegemite jar to piss in every time.
The nurses are a bit easier on the eye than the Ella beach counterparts and once you finish the medical if you walk out the door cross the street and there is Blue Sky Brewery!-perfect for rehydrating yourself after a stressful medical.

I have been advised that there may well be a doctor in Brisbane who can do a PNG medical and his details should be attainable through the following contact:

Dr. Chelvanathan in Port Moresby is the head of the AMEs. His email as follows:

medicalservice@online.net.pg

He may know who in Australia/New Zealand can do a PNG Medical.

Hope this helps. The information is courtesy of CC.

I have done two medical s in Brisbane for PNG.
The Doc does Australia and FAA as well but it was to hard ( his words to difficult to get NZ approval ) WTF
Can't remember his name at the moment, but he is close to Brisbane airport.
Round up the usual suspects
