For the Britts...

Here's a question, though. How long does it take to get in to see your doctors or specialists? I mean, if I wake up in the morning with a fever and sore throat, I can call the doctor and be on my way to an appointment within a couple of hours. My daughter was recently diagnosed with Von Willebrands disease, and she was into the Hemotologist within a couple of days, and had a diagnosis within a week. It was my understanding that with national health care, it's pretty hard to get in to see a doc or specialist. And I don't know how true this is, but from my understanding the Canadians are only allowed one operation a year! What happens, say, if you had a car accident and needed an operation right then, and then, six months later, you need heart surgery? I mean, they're **** out of luck! I'm all for nationalized health care, only if things stay the way they are with my private insurance.
