Saw a patient today who is a veteran. He had a small cavity that was bothering him, but it was going to take 5 months to get it treated at the VA so he came to see me and paid out of pocket. Took 20 mins. I felt outraged by the wait at the VA and when I expressed this to the patient he said, “Honey that’s just the system. Nothing anyone can do about it.”
Do you think most people feel this way and if so, why? I hate that people accept things like this.
