Is that all over, or in some areas?
Do you have to go to specialists, or is there just no one to go to? If you have access to specialists, can you find a Hematologist to see you?
All over, definitely!

Getting referrals to specialists is even more difficult now (I guess I'm fortunate that I've got access to some specialists since I'm disabled). It seems now the entire healthcare field is no longer about preventative healthcare.

(((((((((((Sarah))))))))))))))) definitely go to a walk-in clinic, even if you have to wait a couple of hours... that doesn't sound very good.
