Yeah you need to know the keywords in EU, "pain in chest", "seizures". After which the emergency treatment is quite good.
But for the majority, it isn't great. You go with pain in stomach and it happens to be cancer, you die waiting. I personally have seen so many of these and it's heartbreaking.
That is true, but it also varies from country to country. In Sweden I haven't been able to see a doctor in 1.5 years. In Germany, the waiting time is ridiculous, usually 1-3 months, but if you choose your doctors (Google Maps is the best catalogue for almost everything) - you get the results and 99% of it is covered by statutory insurance.
