How about health guys. Most doctors are no longer taking new patients and even if you want to see your family doctor you get appointment dates 2 weeks in the future. And then if you want to do a medical test like an ultrasound or something they give you again a date which is two weeks or sometimes a month ahead what if you are concerned about your health. And want a result fast? Emergency??

I know a friend of mine who had to wait 4 hours in emergency before he was attended for an injured eye. And at the doctors office they give you appointments like they are doing you a favour.

The health system has really gone down.

More then 10 hrs of waiting in Emergency and you have to pay Car parking fee for those 10 hrs.:(

Now Ontario Health is no more free.:)

I have very bad experience. I complained it but nobody bothered about it.

I think its more of training to doctors and getting better equipments, maybe they put some money to hire new doctors that would reduce the wait time otherwise its too disgusting, isse accha to apna india tha jab man kiya ultrasound karwaliya yehan to tensi0on hai date kab milegi...anyway rock on!!

My wife is pregnant and we had been refered to the hospital by our family doctor guess when the hospital has given an appointment. 6 months into the pregnancy. What a country you get to visit a gynacologist 6 months into pregnancy

and what else we had to visit our family doctor to discusss some tests results me for regular checkup my wife for pregnancy the receptionist gave my wife a time of 6:00pm and me 6:30pm isnt that insane I told her I will be in the doctors offcie with her wouldnt it make sense to talk to both of us at the same time. she says if the doctor has no problem only then. although i made her realise what a foolish thing it would be but I had to take that extra step.

its the crapiest and most unbelievable system.

let alone landing into canada or doing odd jobs talk about the basic necessity of life in canada. what is it good for anyways i think to myself now. every other thing is either from india or china or usa.

anyways..:cheers:
