I might finally get to see a specialist. It's been a very long time since I have been dealing with this.

[shockedcanadian]

Odd though, the ego of our system when I told the doctor, "if I don't get the help I need I'm just going to spend whatever I can muster to get help in the U.S".

She suggested that the Canadian system can perform the function and there was no need. I had to politely explain that though all I have experienced to date, I highly doubt it.

Imagine if the MRI results in the U.S, results here that were labelled as "contrast solution" when none was added in my case; actually showed a different image of my brain? I would not be livid, I would be concerned for the damage that might have been done in the interim delay.

Let me tell you, there is no real monetary value one can apply for proper treatment and competency where your health is concerned, especially when there may be a risk of serious health problems.

Kamala and the Democrats want the same for America.

Resist it man.

Look, I am all for healthcare being a right. That right to me means multiple avenues to obtain funding. In every socialized system it is failing and I don't take glee in that I really don't.

For decades I refused to see doctors because I wanted others to get the help they needed. Now I need the help and I feel lost.

Do you know that where the majority of doctors were conservative in years past......now the trend is 80% liberals in these positions. That's not good for any of us. We've seen the commercials from medical schools where the prime directive is social justice rather than health care for all...i mean COMPETENT health care for all. Some doctors, women specifically, have posted online that they have mistreated their conservative with false diagnoses and improper treatments. They post this online, idiots that they are. What is done about it? I don't know...i don't see any charges being brought.

The gov't is running off white males in the medical field. I don't call it profession. They target foreigners, women, foreign women, foreign males. THAT is who they want treating patients in the US... Those folk have no empathy for americans. And their training is juvenile to say the least.

As I understand it, there is no "Canadian" healthcare system. They are provincial, and some are better than others, The provinces cannot manufacture doctors or force them to work where they don't want to work.

Most Americans have either employer-subsidized health insurance, Medicaid, or Medicare plus a supplement, all of which provide pretty good coverage. But if you walk in with no insurance and you checkbook, you could very well be bankrupted by the cost.

I don't care if my doctor is female, male, gay or an alien. I don't care what their politics are or even if they hate America. I don't care.

I just care that they are competent and keep their Hippocratic Oath.

well if they ARE Those things your chances of their competency is considerably less. Just like everything else the left meddles with, the health field is politicized.
