    Like going to a post office.

    You walk in, show your health ID, get treated, then leave.

    Edit: Assuming you’re going to a hospital. Family doctor care is similar, although in my province they’re contractors, and it can be hard to find one with an opening for new patients right now.

    Oh, I just noticed it wait time was requested. It varies for family doctors; the local one that sucks can pretty much always get you in immediately. I’m with one that needs a couple days notice now, haha.

    If you get referred to a specialist it’s a long wait, like many months, and when you do go it’s a human production line coordinated down to the second.

      I know for a fact you haven’t been using the health care system in any province if you’re spreading this bullshit.
