Took dd to the doctor this morning. Called at 8, made an appointment for 10 and had to wait 10 minutes, so seen at 10:10. Imagine that on NH? Asked for a referral to the speech therapist and got it straight away, came home, called the therapist nearest my home and got an appointment to start on Monday! Whole thing costs zilch.
If I ever do leave Berlin, I'm sure I will spend the rest of my life pining away for the German health care system.
Remember dd needed an OP at 4. Doctor sent me to a specialist, specialist set it up, all done in a lovely little villa in beautiful grounds (not some grotty busy inner-city hospital) a week after I'd first taken her to the GP. They were all fantastic and it cost -zilch. Imagine trying to do that on NH?
