Dear Jim,
You probably remember me as the GP in Aarhus area that you visited a late afternoon in Winter…
Congratulations with your research being published this way. For me as a Danish GP with good connection with my colleagues across the country it is a bit difficult to recognize your picture of us as not willing to do nearly anything for our dying patients… – but perhaps part of the story is the well functioning out of hours systen?
Bw,
