As an American, we’ve got it similar but expensive. We’ve got emergency rooms which triage and cost like a thousand dollars or more, then there are urgent cares which usually cost $50 (copay) and tell you whether or not to go to the er (usually you can get in somewhat quickly and occasionally they can even help), then there’s your regular doctor and that’ll typically be about a month if you’re a returning patient though some like mine keep an appointment slot either every day or every week open for same day appointments so you can call first thing after they open in the hopes of being seen.
Oh, and insurance tells you who you get to have as a doctor. And every January the list may suddenly change
Guaranteed, anyone with access to real healthcare would’ve had that checked out immediately.
Yeah we all know older european men aren’t stubborn about anything and would go to the doctor at the first sign of anything
ftfy
but it would take effort to go to make an appointment
Pros: free healthcare Cons: it takes a month to get an appointment
