雅思场景听写训练 第27期:饮食与健康(4)（在线收听）

There are two practices near here, so we're quite well off for doctors in this part of Manchester. There's the Dean End Health Center about ten minutes' walk away and there's another practice in South Hay. That's about five minutes away going towards the town center. We're registered our practice and four in the other. So ours is quite big in comparison. And the building and everything's a bit more modern. South Hay is a bit old-fashioned but the doctors are OK. Their only problem is that they don't have a proper appointment system. Sometimes you have to wait for ages there to see someone.

Anyway, you go to the receptionist in whichever health center and ask her to register you with a doctor there. You have to fill in a form, but it doesn't take long. Ours is called Dr Jones and we've been going to him for years—ever since we moved here fifteen years ago I wouldn't say he's brilliant but I suppose he's alright really. We're used to him now. They say he's very good with elderly people, but he does tend to get a bit impatient with children. Listen, the one who's supposed to be really good with samll children is Dr. Shaw. I've heard losts of people say that. She's young and she's got samll children of her own. So you could try registering with her. And if her list is full, I heard somebody say the other day that there's a really nice young doctor at South Hay, a Dr.Williams. He holds special clinics for people with back trouble. But that's not really your problem, is it?
