I was dealing with a doctor with whom appts were impossible. He was a specialist, good ones are extremely hard to find here, and the average wait time was 3 hours. I do not wait 3 hours for ANY doctor....if he doesn't respect his patients, I have no respect for him. When the one hour mark arrives I get up and leave.I also do not accept a PA in place of a doctor because THEY ARE NOT doctors and when that is all being offered I will not pay for a doctor visit. Then you have our wonderful hometown hospital where anything more complicated then a bloody nose and they send you off to Shands hospital...it happened to me and my neighbor as well, forcing my wife to drive 1.5 hours each way. With very few exceptions, the medical experience that the villages health system tries to say is available is total BS! It's your health!
