Where do people with an urgent health problem on a weekend go outside of the US? It doesn't sound like cost of treatment was the problem, at least based on that

- gerdesj 9y ago"Where do people with an urgent health problem on a weekend go outside of the US?" UK: We have several options. If it is non urgent then ring 111. If it is really urgent ring 999 and ask for an ambulance. If you can, then get yourself to the nearest Accident and Emergency (A&E) dept. None of these options will involve a credit check. For example I had a wisdom tooth snag a few years back on a Sunday morning (it hurt quite a lot.) I rang 111 and within about 1.5 hours (including 1 hour drive across Somerset) I had it removed. The NHS isn't perfect but sometimes it feels like it. I have several other anecdotes that are less complimentary about it and some other good ones but in general I'm a major fan.
