Health support services are not the same as emergency and ambulatory services. There are lots of doctors and health centers but where i see the problem is when things go radically wrong very quickly, there is not the necessary support. And yes, you are right. This is not the typical city of 100k. It is a disproportionate amount of people who need emergency and ambulatory care.
