I am completely aware that we do not have socialized medicine. That was sarcasm. As far as Jim Carrey goes, I can’t hold him up as a beacon of truth and light.

We have a healthcare system over whelmed by people. Prior to Obama care there was a very large segment of our population that could not afford healthcare insurance. Since Obama care began we have been unable to train up docs, NP’s, PA’s to meet the demand. Prior we had ample time to spend with our doc visits. Now for docs it’s time equals money. Even in small practices you have maybe 15 minutes to spend in a visit. It’s not a social call and shouldn’t be treated as such. Many of us need to readjust our expectations and be thankful we have availability to healthcare, maybe not at the level you just want.
