Counterpoint: I’m in New York too, and I’ve given up on a few minor annoying but not life threatening health issues because of the wait times and scheduling inflexibilities between each hop of the process. I’d love a reference to your doctors (or system) :)
The saving grace for me is that my employer provides a service similar to One Medical, which at least lets me visit a doctor or nurse practitioner to get an idea of how serious something is.
