Unable to urinate? Is it BPH or Bladder Disease caused by DMT2?

I have always wondered, how do I find one of those hospitals like the ones on TV where the patient is seen immediately, assessed by a team of ER docs, sent to a beautiful room, then another team comes in to give the final diagnosis. If none is found, the team members will spend time perusing journals, past history, eventually coming up with a unique and effective treatment plan. I want to go to one of those hospitals...PLEASE!

@heisenberg34 thanks for a good laugh! 😆 Sitting here watching those medical shows like Grey’s Anatomy, Chicago Med, The Good Doctor and Transplant, I too wonder where those hospitals exist! lol!
Transplant, for one, is set in a hospital in Ontario, Canada, and so far removed from Canadian (albeit I can only speak about Ontario) health care! Nowhere can you be greeted outside the entrance doors (or even if at death’s door in the waiting room) and ushered immediately into a room replete with state of the art equipment at the ready! 😄 Even if you are brought in by ambulance (you do get seen faster - but just a bit) you have to wait to be triaged and put in line for treatment! lol.

That was standard medical care in the 60s and 70s. And not just for rich people...for everyone.
And it could be standard medical care today if medical care was not controlled by corporations, to glean the profit margins they want. I guess folks don't know, but back when I was a kid, hospitals were not run for profit. And I think some of them ran at a loss. They just did what was necessary for patients. And if they went into the red, they contacted some wealthy donors and got their funding that way, not on the backs of sick people.
As of about oh, maybe 10 years ago, 25% of the major US corporations paid exactly ZERO in taxes. If they paid their fair share? Yes, medical care in this country could be entirely different.
