Post COVID hospital in Ohio, limped in with severe ankle sprain, got doctor in less than 15 minutes and out within an hour with splint and crutches. Even got X-Ray.
What city? Most of us in this thread live in larger cities. When I lived in LA and had to go to the ER, the wait was 5 hours and they literally rolled a cart over and made me prepay my insurance deductible (several hundred dollars) before a doctor even saw me. Helped a friend get to the ER in Phoenix and it was about 3 hours.
