Worried about mole

[bigjetplane2]

I am not a HAer that goes to the dr, I have the opposite issue I avoid them. That said, I have read numerous times about the NHS "burden on the healthcare" .. I call BS, someone's brainwashed all of you, they are there to take care of us calling us a burden is demeaning and insulting.

Same. i avoid the doctor

Covid at its worst was the only time in my lifetime there was a concern about running short on medical supplies or hospital beds and we still didn't.

Other than that time, having limited services or facilities does not cross our minds.

I need to have a mole on my neck checked out, its my HA that is preventing me from going, the day I get the nerve up, I can call my dermatologist myself and get a same day appointment.

Not every dr or apt is same day unless we are feeling really unwell. My husband had a blocked ear, thought maybe ear infection, he called his Dr and got in that afternoon.

Its just so different here, I can't imagine waiting months on end for an apt or being made to feel like I'm a burden or using up our precious medical supplies or the drs time.

When we need them, we need them now.

I cant do that. There are not enough dermatologists where I live for someone to call up and get a same day appointment. I have been waiting six weeks not to see a urologist but to get told WHEN I can see a urologist. That's because their schedules are slammed.
