I have the use of a medical card due to a long term condition, I had problems with the oul' tummy the past few weeks they checked me over in hospital but after a few days werent sure what was wrong so they told me I'll have to see a consultant a specialist in that area & a few days later I got an appointment for a date 3months time! To make a long story short I consulted my doctor asked him could I see the consultant privately he smiled & said u can but it will cost, I woulda paid any monies so I got to see him privately for 120! within 2 weeks for 5 minutes! A few weeks later I went back for results another 80euro 5 minutes again he looked mostly at the wall most times when talking to me said I'll have to go on a course of tablets-200 for 10 minutes work!
how crazy is that!!...
