[QUOTE="Rove, post: 191119, member: 100"] It's kind of hit and miss here in Australia. On Friday (just gone) morning I phoned and requested the next available appointment. I was expecting sometime next week but was pleasantly surprised when the receptionist informed me a cancellation had just opened up so I took it. In the past though my local medical centre has been booked out all week. Thankfully laws were changed here in Australia where I can walk into my local chemist and request a sick form to present to work, which at $25 dollars is a hell of a lot cheaper than visiting a doctor. I remember at the time the doctors were up in arms about this but as most people said, "[I]If I'm suffering from a common cold I know a few days rest and plenty of water will have me up and running in no time.[/I]" But what really peeves me off is arriving prior to my appointment and waiting...and waiting. Why is it Doctors cannot stick to a schedule? I get sick just sitting in the waiting room. [/QUOTE]
