Having lived many years in the US and Europe, wait times in Europe are shorter. This includes emergency room visits, doctor office visits, and physical therapy. Just for example if I was more than 5m late for my physical therapy in the UK, they wouldn't see me. So zero wait time for that. At the doctor I would make a phone appt ahead of time and I usually had to wait 5 or 10m. Also no insurance forms to fill out or any of that annoying extra work.
