I (born and raised Canadian) moved my family to Canada 5 years ago.
We've been on a waiting list for a doctor ever since. My only option to see a doctor here is to go the emergency room at the closest hospital.
- snapplebobapple 2y agoYah you are paying with your life. Its shockingly stupid because there are lots of good examples to oick and choose from how to do a public payor system correctly (singapore does it best imo but nordics and france are options for examples of better tham here just not best)
- nubinetwork 2y agoIf it makes you feel any better, I've been in the healthcare IT field for 20 years. I tried to stay away from the doctors office as much as possible. Last year I started feeling exhausted 24/7 and tried to make an appointment, but got turned away from my doctors office because my doctor retired and the new guy didn't want to let me make an appointment. So here I am on a waiting list, in a city where 10% of the population don't have a doctor either. I've been waiting for over a year. I wish I could change fields, "once you've seen how the sausage is made, you'll want to be a vegetarian"...
