Unless you can foresee a problem 1-2 weeks in advance, or can wait that long to be seen, the only alternative is to go to the urgent care clinic and sit in a packed waiting area with lots of germs flying around. This system doesn't work if you have a school drop off to do first as by the time you get there you often find there are 20+ people waiting in front of you. It has no triage so an unwell cancer patient or young infant can find themselves waiting for up to 3 hours to be seen. Getting past the receptionists to speak to a doctor or nurse is difficult, even if you have 'open access'. There is no recognition or understanding of individual circumstances. However, once you get to see the doctors or nurse practitioner, almost all of them are sympathetic & caring & good at their job.
