It is your health; I don’t know about the US but in NL UK ES PT you have to apply yourself to get attention but then you do; I get help fast whatever I have because I am not taking no for an answer; people who do, well, it is your health; it is not exactly ok to just walk out when you are in trouble. You push and don’t leave until you get help. My gp did what Seinfeld George wanted; go away it’s not cancer; it was cancer and I knew it but you have to get aggressive to get attention in many places as most people go to their doctor for a chat because they need to (which, in an ideal world, is a reason to go as well by the way). People believe their gp is a smart person and knows things; they don’t; they are the gatekeepers: don’t listen to them, just get referred asap.

Yeah...

My impression is that NHS has some sort of guidelines explaining default GP reactions to keywords.

E.g., "pain in the back" is the fastest way to end the conversation.
