I'm in the 20% without access to a doctor and I am completely unable to have regular checkups or health issues looked at. It's extremely frustrating knowing it could be better managed
Where u at, city-wise?
I'm in Montreal and in the same situation. No family doctor, whenever I have a health issue I have to call 811 to get sent to a clinic so I can have my problems dismissed by a random doctor.
I'm tempted to go to Ontario to pay for a private doctor, which defeats the purpose of our system.
Can you ask your friends/family who they see and ask if they can hook you up?
They're all full and not taking any new patients, or nowhere near where I live unfortunately
