Interesting read from Edm. Journal re: Alberta Healthcare

I understand why they only want to face one issue at a time simply because some people can go on and on forever about all their issues and they need to get to the next appointment.

I've never had this issue with my doctor and he lets me talk about as many things as I want, but I guess the one thing doctors don't want is having to remember 4 different problems and having to write notes for all those problems. Probably will run into a few mistakes when having to remember so much.

Too bad the private sector isn't filling in the gaps.
