Say that there are 6 people in the room you are reading this in. Studies show that one in six of you don't have a family doctor. And only 22% of us that have a family doctor can get a same or even next-day appointment. In fact, looking at the other countries percentages for appointment times, we are in last place. France has the highest percentage rate, with 86% of patients who get a same or next-day appointment.
