Usually physicians (competent ones, at least) are more than happy when their patients take an interest in test like these. Saves them loads of work later, lol.
Not sure but I think Australia kind of restricts it more. In the end he said technically I don't even need a referral from a doctor to do it, but couldn't really give me any information on it or a price or anything.
He was kind of just like "since it's not a health issue you have to pay for the test" which is fine. Kind of like the importance of having a healthy level is ignored and maybe how it's hated upon by alot of idiots who attack men these days.

I can see the benefit of that might be that they would actually know how to read it properly.
That's true, you shouldn't need a referral for that. Still, unless you need to get your blood tested due to some sort of actual health emergency, it's quite possible you're gonna have to pay (no idea how exactly does it work Down Under, though). It shouldn't be prohibitively expensive, I believe. Although he could have given you at least an address for a lab or smth.
The private clinic blood test is the best idea, most probably. 'round here you can even access the results through the Internet or a public access computer they have at the lab, and the cost depends on what you want to get tested exactly (so you could check out other stuff apart from testosterone too).
