Canada comes second last out of 20 countries in new health-care ranking

This was my experience as well.
When it came time to help, they all did a wonderful job and were very professional and prompt.
Including the receptionist if I may add.

I will third this!

For a simple mri , CT scan , wait time is 5 months in GTA. Too many people.

Another option is finding a smaller center with an MRI that's not as busy as the Toronto or GTA in general. Send the form.
people send their requests to places like Owen Sound or smaller areas with under-utilized machines.

As someone who had a "major malfunction in my primary systems", I was hospitalized and had a CT Scan and 2 MRIs within a week to save my life. When I tell people that they're shocked!
Our healthcare DOES work. We have great doctors and nurses. It's the system, as many have already mentioned, that needs work. Lots of politics. Fifedoms. And egos!

A sign at my doctor's said they get $37 per appointment from the province and from that they pay their office and admin overhead as well as themselves.

Imagine having dropped hundreds of thousands on education, ten years of the prime of your life studying in an in demand field and this is what you get.

Damn Provinces who get some generous benefits from The Federal Government do squander it on other projects including Private Healthcare rather than using the funds more prudently!!

Health care is provincial.

DoFo has cut funding and privatized services at higher prices.
His policies are driving family doctors and nurses out of the province.

Doug Ford is a fake conservative
