A sampling from the comments...all of them are well worth reading to see our future should conservatives not gain some measure of control in November.

When you book an appointment (hopefully) at our Practice you are only allowed to discuss one health problem in the 10 minute appointment. If you have a number of differing problems, then you would need a number of appointments, one for each problem. I know of a few people who could well be there all day ! Is it possible to get any dafter than this?

it took me 4 weeks to get an appointment even though I gave my symptoms on the phone everyday for 4 weeks when I did get to see the doctor he told my I had suffered a stroke

Over the past five years the British Pakistani community has swelled in our area beyond all comprehension ...., 80% of the waiting room were Asian patients on Friday, especially babies, they even have an Urdu desk at reception, the nurse at reception said that all Muslim patients must be granted an appointment within a week for religious reasons ....., and that we were not the only Indigenous Family to be reclassified as non-priority cases and turned down for any GP appointment requested.

Horrifying & maddening. We aren’t so very far behind....I frequently have trouble maintaining any optimism that America can be spared the cancer of Socialism which lies at the root of this. Extremely dark times we’re in. “sigh”

I think Medicaid appointments are supposed to be like that in the U.S. But not a big deal if they know about the multiple codes in advance -- just book two or three appts back-to-back. Other times they just kind of ignore the requirement and change the appt schedule "after-the-fact".
