1) Getting a family doctor is almost impossible (lack of openings for new patients), lack of clinics with family doctors
2) Booking an appointment to see a family doctor slow, often 2-4 weeks ahead
3) The doctor runs late 5-20 minutes
4) The doctor spends only 15 minutes with you
5) Some family doctors share their care of you with another doctor in the clinic (a locum) and so their attention gets split
6) The doctors often lack time to review your medical history so you waste the limited time in the initial appointments going over whatever you submitted to the clinic before joining as a new patient
7) Your doctor's lack of time with you means they don't have much time to listen to you and gather information about your symptoms and so they send you on your way with medicine to cover up the symptoms
8) Women aren't taken seriously when describing their symptoms and are just told to "monitor their condition". This means that until the symptoms become chronic and then severe enough that the woman is physically/visibly affected, the doctors will not make an effort to look after you...
