Current Events > Called to get a doctors appointment, got a phonecall booked for 28th September.

(+) Yeah! (+)

My counselor felt I should talk with a doctor to discuss medication and/or sick leave.

But the doctor I'm listed on the health center doesn't have any times booked so I have to wait for so long. And just for phone-call, he has his own times he can book that the nurse can't so he might get me in sooner. Otherwise there was times in mid October for the nurse to book me.

"Free" health care yeah, but I gotta wait this long. But I could've still gotten a time today, but it would have been some random doctor, and it would have been an acute booked time. My cause isn't really that acute.

I know I complain a bit of the wait, I still would not want to change the "free" part.

Yeah I don't, and the nurse made the right assessment.

The health centers get patients all the time and have hard time handle the amount, and many times people don't need to go there honestly. In Sweden we promote self-care a lot, but a lot of foreign people that's not something they do. Not that just they don't understand it, lot of native people don't either.
