But I live in Ontario..so I dunno. Sometimes there is a wait if you want to see a particular person, but you get to pick from the 100's of pdocs depending on your area. My last one saw me the same day I was referred. The level of care here is just as good as any in the world, and yes you do get your bad experiences too, like anywhere. But some of the top research also comes from Canada. I am just happy I don't have to worry about getting a 10,000 dollar bill for a month, or a hospital stay, or whatever, of 'services'. I've been around the world, and have not found a better health care system period.
I just give 'em my health card, and bingo, presto, I get excellent service.Jay
