Medical care over the years

How has it changed for you over time? Better, worse? Obamacare been treating good or rather go back?
-I feel like if you got a good doctor, you gotta WAIT for him. The GP all the family members been using for probably damn near 3 decades now, great doctor but if you need an annual physical your looking at 4 months out at the earliest. It's crazy stuff I don't remember being like that even a few years ago. LMK if you need a primary care doctor in NY sometime in 2025 or 2026 (you gotta book now though) Jack Geffken, great dude. You guys noticing the waits increasing?
-I've been blessed to be in pretty good health so far. A few injuries and I've had to see other doctors/specialists. It's a lot of head down in the computer. Prescribe you some bullshit, get you in and get you the fuck out. It's all churn and burn. Total waste of time and co pay. The customer service part of medical has just nosedived. After Covid they don't even fucking shake your hand anymore. And remember when doctors would actually call you? Those days are long gone.
-Big hospital near me going bankrupt. I don't got their books in front of me but I'm sure all these newcomers with no insurance using the ER as primary care aren't helping things.
What are your guys experiences out there, notice any changes over the years?
