I'm Dutch, and I've never had to wait for more than a week to see my GP. Never more than a month for a procedure.

Additionally, when I lived in the US, we got a special Dutch health insurance plan for temporary expats. They sent us a letter that if one of us ever had to go to the hospital, they'd fly them over to the Netherlands unless the situation required immediate attention.

I live in the midwest and it takes me about a month to get an appt with my GP. If I want to see an NP, and block out about 4 hours to sit in the office, I can be seen that week, usually.
