Pollianna,
My disappointment in your extremely late appointment goes deep. As a former health care worker, I understand that people are living longer due to some very smart minds and inquisitive brains that have found cures, treatments and medications. I realize there was a babyboom several years ago and I am one of those late babyboomers. I know getting into medical school be it nursing or physician is difficult as there are not enough educators to teach the willing students in waiting. HOWEVER, I wouldn't hink that would mean that someone with health issues and major ones at that would have to wait so long. I am really at a loss of words.
Now, I do not know about your form of health care other than it is like a national health care, or at least I think. I know that President Obama and prior to him, First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton wanted to create a national health care system. Now, my personal opinion is that the less involvement of the government in my business the better, but I could be wrong. I understand that there basically isn't any cost, etc but I am concerned that I would have to give up some of that wonderful freedom granted to me in the First Amendment..........basically, my right to chose pretty much whatever. I would however like to see a cap on medications as well as on physician appointments, procedures, etc. ANYWAY, if you would take a moment if you would and explain it to me. I would appreciate it.
Again, I understand and feel your frustration. I also hereby promise to no longer complain when I have to wait a couple of days to get into see one of my docs.
