Covered by your insurance, in your city, and available next week.

I'm sorry to say, but if that isn't good enough for you - you'd fuckin hate the NHS.

Literally NOT in my provider directory. So NOT covered by my insurance. And not even remotely affiliated with the health system I use. ZocDoc is just ads. Its not an actual provider directory.
Specialist wait times have been skyrocketing in urban areas in the last two to three years. Dermatology is up to over a month on average. OB is as well. Cardiology is just about a month. Wait times in some specialties are higher than in Canada now. Its a real problem.

Yep but you're looking at 2/3 months for those in the UK.
