The biggest hurdle I find is getting over the Kiwi attitude of 'she'll be right, mate' (I think the Aussies have something similar). It's something of a National Identity and part of a measure of 'manliness' here. Akin to Kiwi ingenuity (No. 8 wire and all that).
And it leads to kiwi guys like me just 'putting up and shutting up' with ills and ailments.
I've called. Got an appointment in two hours. :thumb
