These people are running a sham operation. Want to discuss your medical options? Nope! They’ll tell you what you will/won’t be doing, even if it is exactly the opposite of effective treatment you have received in the past. Want to try to strategize with your doctor about pain management, chronic illness planning, etc? Nope! They’re not interested. What they are interested in, however, is getting you in and out and charging you their 70eur visit fee.
They prescribe you medication that makes you vomit until you’re coughing up blood? You can call and tell them «hey — this med isn’t working, let’s (again) try this other one that’s worked in the past for me», but they’re going to tell you to come back in for another 70eur just to call in a new prescription for you.
So: They have no interest in discussing options with you. They will take your money and send you on your way, without listening to what you have to say. They will even deny you medication that you have had a standing prescription for for years to manage chronic pain for absurd reasons. When the medication that they prescribe makes you sick, but there is a known different medication that will easily work better, they won’t just acknowledge that it was a good effort that didn’t work out and rectify it with a proven remedy. They will force you to shell out another fee just to get written a prescription.
This is even worse than the United States private health sector.
**As an aside, and most importantly: My doctor took TWO WEEKS to return my calls/​emails after I left messages every day. Even with chronic and debilitating back and musculoskeletal pain, he refused to prescribe my standing medication from the US when he finally got back to me two days before I leave for a 2 month trip outside of Finland.
Now I have to wait until I arrive in the US, with no insurance there, to get legitimate and ethical medical treatment. This both disgusts and pains me. Literally. PAINS me. Just wait for the public health system — it actually works better.
