Wait can you restate for my understanding?
The business couldn't see you in a timely fashion, and wpuld ban you if you found another provider to get seen by?
What if you wanted a second opinion before a big treatment/operation?
Good question! I suppose you could ask for another referral to a different surgeon for a second opinion but I’ve no idea if you’d get an appointment. Note that it’s usually months from getting the referral to getting the appointment.
I think the chances of getting a second opinion from another doctor are ZERO for the reasons stated in the article.
What in the fuck is that system? That's terrible
That’s Ontario. Thanks Ford, thanks conservatives.
