If it makes you feel any better (well aware it will not), I’ve not had a consistent NHS GP for a good 15-20 years, and it’s for the same reason - fewer doctors cost less money, and private for profit companies running our healthcare (in many cases, the very same people, since many of the companies buying up the NHS are American insurers) only care about one thing, and it isn’t healthcare.
Uhh. I haven’t visted a doctor for a check up since I was 18. Which was 14 years ago. I have only used healthcare when I crushed my hand at work. In which my company paid for. I have never gone to a walk in, I have never gotten a prescription despite getting bronchitis and pneumonia every year. Haven’t gotten to the doctor for the 3 times I had food poison or the flu. It is costly, it takes time, I work night and sleep during day, and I still pay health insurance(50$ a week and 50$ a month for dental) in which I have to pay to visit doctors and pay until I hit a deductible
