    Watching my uncle die of a brain tumour while they insisted it was depression was an eye opener. They’ve chased all tje decent medical professionals south with their bullshit system.

        I really hope the federal government doesn’t “nationalize” dentistry. Right now if I need care I can get it. Other than emergencies I’m to fuck off under the current regime. The doctors have left. They dicked around for 2 years over a customers prostate cancer now it’s spread, he’ll be dead this time next year.

              You did, I showed that misdiagnosis happen in the USA as well, you just started talking about your anecdote again without addressing the fact that it might as well have happened in the USA.

                  But it does happen in the USA as well, that’s the whole point! You’re pissed because of your anecdote so you ignore the fact that 800k families have the same anecdotes in the USA!

                    Those 800k other anecdotes didn’t happen because government policy chased all.the doctors out of the country leaving us with the bottom of the barrel stressed out to the nines. Can’t get a doctor now If I want one, had to basically bribe a nurse to get my class one medical done. Nurses, nurse practicioners and pharmacists can do that, now, btw, government realized truckers not being able to see doctors to get government mandated medicals was counter productive.
