    Hey can anyone recommend a good doctor in City center that accepts medical cards and does not have some kind of 3 week waiting list. Must be a female doctor also? (posting on behalf of my otherhalf)

    Apologies for not answering you question but just to clarify - A GP doesn't decide whether or not to accept medical cards. They are either part of or excluded from the GMS system. They can't accept/decline cards holders on an ad hoc basis.

    Ok i see. So one that is in GMS system. She tried one place on dame street but was told they didnt accept medical cards. I'm guessing they are just not on that system so

    Your local HSE Health Centre can give you a list of GPs in the GMS panel. You could also have a look HERE for GPs in your area. Not all of them may be in the GMS scheme, but you could choose a couple, ring them & ask.

    Just bear in mind that if their list is full or their quota has been reached they won't be able to accept you, but you should be able to find one.
