I went to doctor today for health check and I’m really sick of the health system in Ireland. I had to wait for 1h 40min though appointment itself took only 5 min And I don’t like doctors in Ireland. If they can they prescribe you antibiotics (for kids also Calpol or Neurofen). When sickness doesn’t allow any of those (e.g. stomach problems), doctors send you home and tell you get better yourself. I don’t even want to know what would happen if I get serious illness.

In Latvia it was complete opposite. Doctors used to write so much drugs that you can get bankrupt buying all of them. At least some helped
