-What is regrettable in Portugal (I'm in France) is the price that it costs a consultation with a doctor, my wife on vacation in a crippled foot slipped and broke a nail, we went to a nursing center in cost EUR 60 between the dressing and a compulsory passage because the doctor refused to do the healing without seeing the doctor. France had a severe burn in one hand was the center of the nursing consultation in the medical dressing and cost 30 Euros, not to mention the fact that even the 30 euros will be reimbursed by social security.
What I find shameful is that Portugal is not repay, because the hospital would be cheaper, the problem is that a doctor in Portugal takes over the double for a consultation in France. Although expensive I know that some swindlers are poorly educated and therefore do everything for all to benefit the people of the state health system and make people do analysis and testing in private, because forgetting to tell certain people that they are priority in certain cases and not have to wait, but not clear whether to send their friends do not receive commissions.
-We all know that many professionals in excellent health. But unfortunately we also know that some who need to be "empty" and in the case ask them to change jobs. The quotation attributed to our country shames us. But it is to this sad reality is encabrite corporate and yell that we have the best health system in the world. Of course, with that blindness never improve the system.
What is that worth in too many health professionals who do not take down the arms and do everything to provide the community of health care excellence. The reason is that our public recognition!
