呢度D急症室多人到癲﹐去親到要坐底等 5-6 個鐘﹐仲要見完醫生咩到無幫你做﹐醫生咪又叫你明早見家庭醫生﹐真係盞搞 。。犧牲了睡眠但都係得個吉。。。但係屋企有老人真係無咩辦法﹐半夜他唔舒服唔送他去又好似好殘忍﹐很無奈

Sometimes, you will get faster service and more attention at walk-in clinics. May was well go to one first if it's not really emergency case (i.e. high fever/bleeding/heart attack...etc).
Some of them open till late.
I think there must be something wrong in this case. Wonder if the woman never had or knew that she had fever.
Cos a lot of doctors use fever as a guideline for flu detection. And her old breathing problem may have masked the actual cause of "hard to breath" from flu.

It needs a doctor to support you to sue another doctor. However no doctor will stand up for you to point the gun at other doctor. It happened to me long ago, I almost died because the doctor's negligence. I was in the IMC for ten days passed out. I went to the lawyer asked  for help and lawyer said it is very difficult to sue the doctor.  My case was rejected.

As I said, what you pay is what you get.

Here you pay big bucks, so quality service is expected.
So you have every right to sue if you don't get that.

However, in Canada, for such a cheap price, your rights are also limited.

our medical service is not free or only $50/month.   our tax free day is in july, which mean more than half of our salaries gone to taxes.  and part of our taxes are use to support our medical service.
americans have their private insurance companies to take care their medical plans, and we have our govn't to take care our medical plans.  all services are paid by our money, so we do request quality service.

so are you saying that if a poor person buys a cheap house and another rich person buys a house like a castle, when the earthquake hits the poor person deserves to die more than the rich one just because the poor person cannot afford a cheap house!?

for something like this, it's not about the price you pay, it's about basic human right... medical care in canada is something that's basic and everyone gets it, regardless if it's cheaper here than the states or not... what makes Mae not as worthy of treatment as those who went and got treatment and survived H1N1? they both paid the same price.  the point here is that the hospital staff was negligent in this case.
