Die waiting?

What is it with health systems?

Public or private, you could literally die waiting for appointments.

All I want is a second opinion. In the state system, I can't see a cardiologist for over 1 year. I tried a private clinic......nothing available until 2021!

Some may say 'go to the emergency room'. All well and good, but the state system here is so bad, even 3 doctors I've spoken to, don't trust it.

Hi Mark,

Sorry to hear about your experience.

I'm not familiar with the health provision in Romania so can't really comment.

What made you choose to live in Romania?

Stay safe

Thanks Dave. Work brought me out here originally, and the rest as they say, is history.

I think where ever you are at the moment there could be delays.

Would / could work relocate you to somewhere with better provision?

For the sake of your health something needs to change.
