Urgent still means urgent up here.
You support a huge industry with your ideology, I can think of a few members who sold their car to support there health, one died a month ago, Snow White was sold for that reason, read Johns post. You may be OK for now but when the chips are down they possibly will not be able to say you brought the farm when you died because by then you would not be able to and in your case the farm might already be sold.
You have to see the light down there sometime, you are probably the only 1st world country that does not have health care for its population. Think about that for a moment. The way your vets are treated is abysmal, sadly ours are not treated too much better, but they do have healthcare to fall back on.
Americans who come to live here are amazed.
If you want private treatment you can get that too, just anti up the extra $$$. Go to a private hospital and maybe see the same doc.
By all means I know our healthcare - medical is a sad state of affairs. An appendectomy for my wife was right at 10 grand. Researching this I saw cost for the same procedure as high as 25k ! No insurance.. here's your cost.. insurance.. the same care just went up another 50%. I was really just wanting "enlightened" on how things went up your way.. and you have done just that. Last I heard .. and it's been a while.. an appointment with your doctor was a "your on the list" kind of thing.
