Blood

After many months I finally have found a doctor. In Montréal there is a tremendous shortage of Family Physicians. This has several causes, one of them that after your graduation as a doctor the Québec government wants you to work for a couple of years in rural areas (where there is even a bigger shortage of doctors). If you stay in the city you are fined by a 30% cut in your income. Another reason is that because the workload is very high many doctors are retiring early.
Anyway, I have one now and after conducting a complete physical exam he wanted to do some blood tests. I had to go to the hospital for those and of course there were huge lines. I had to wait for three hours, not fun when you have so much work to do.

Mensekienders. Als je nou ooit nog een privevliegtuigje koopt ben je in die tijd bijna in Nederland. Kun je daar naar de dokter…ga ik wel met je mee om je hand vast te houden.
