In my time in the UK I never had any contact with the NHS - how do you imagine her experience in a British hospital?
Coming from Germany and now living in Denmark, I have full confidence in the systems here to handle it equally well (maybe with less than 8 people in a room though).
- dagw 6y agomaybe with less than 8 people in a room though And that is one of the many reasons why US healthcare is so expensive. I live in Sweden now, and many of the 'minor' things a doctor would handle in US is handled by nurses here. Personally I've never felt this to be a problem at all, but I know many people in the US feel very uncomfortable about that idea.
- Symbiote 6y agoMy only personal experience in a British hospital was fine. They saw me promptly, the treatment was fine, the free meal was typically British. I've been twice to Danish hospitals, and I think the experience is very comparable. The staff in Copenhagen seemed kinder (a bit more time to reassure the patient etc) but otherwise there wasn't much difference. I trust both countries in 2015, and Denmark in 2020. I don't know what's happened in Britain since 2015. My family aren't complaining (at least, no more than the usual British amount), but the British people keep voting against their interests.
- kar1181 6y agoIt would have been fine in the UK, the difference would have been waiting time (we'd definitely not be in and out in 90 minutes here). Also we'd have had a junior doctor or nurse do the stitches. End result would be roughly the same. In some parts of the country it may be a longer wait than others. The NHS generally though are very good when you visit with very young children.
