NiteDoc

What separates a GP who can help from one who can't is often about capacity during odd hours and willingness to think past the textbook. NiteDoc operates when most practices are closed—timing that matters for genuine emergencies but also for people whose work patterns don't align with 9-to-5 clinic hours. Good after-hours medicine requires quick diagnostic thinking, clear judgment about what needs emergency referral versus what can be managed on site, and honest communication about limitations. Experience in this space means knowing which antibiotics are actually appropriate, when to refer for imaging that can't wait until morning, and how to manage the pressure of anxious parents or stressed patients without losing sight of what actually needs doing. It's the difference between genuinely helping or just running a dressing station.
