Which you should never attempt to diagnose yourself ever.)Very true.

Then there are the yellowpages and (local) phonebooks (ours have special lists of doctors etc, really convenient).
I don't know how it works for you people. Here, you'd have to ask the GP if they take new patients etc and fill out some forms (name, address, insurance, previous doctors so they can request old medical records...). They'd not be allowed to turn you down if they're not already much over capacity. That's how it's dealt with here in Germany if I'm not mistaken.
