    Oh no, I didn’t think you were bragging. I was just giving everyone else perspective. I am glad Europeans have that available to them!

      Thank you :) To add: the worst part of our healthcare system is that there’s a private branch too. I think municipalities try to make sure that there’s always insurance covered doctors available, but with certain specialties, there just aren’t enough around. It’s just more profitable for the doctors to be private. For example, I’ve given up on finding a gyno that’s insurance-covered. I just pay the 150€ for a full check-up once a year. I’m glad the price is manageable at least!
