I am Czech. I do not have dentist or GP, they are overloaded, none are taking new patients! I have to pay private treatments out of my own pocket! Alternative is to spend like 30 hours calling and calling, and then wait 3 months for an appointment at dentist!
I am forced to pay about 500 euro on mandatory public health insurance (tax) every month!
The same is true in my city in the US, though. My dermatologist schedules 6+ months out for new patients; cardiac/neuro is 3-9 months depending on the urgency. Most of the primary care practitioners in the area are full up; I see regular posts on the local subreddit looking for anyone, anyone taking someone.
