Wow, I live in the UK and when I need to see the doctor I just drop by with no appointment, wait my turn (depending on number of people in the surgery can take 10-60mins. Then the doctor sees me.

Likewise in Canada. I think the wait time numbers are higher because people are waiting to see "their" doctor. But there are lots of drop-in private clinics, and it is always "free" to visit them.
