Healthcare on the island
Was in Bermuda today (and tomorrow) and tried to see a doc at an urgent care to get a rapid strep throat test. I went to a place on Burnaby St in Hamilton, they sent me to another place on Wesley, and eventually they said they only had walk-ins for a short time in the afternoon. I was encouraged to go to the hospital
How anyone gets medical care on this island, it’s kinda wild lol. For a country with a lot of “rich retirees” the healthcare sector didn’t seem very accommodating. I finally tried to circumvent the whole system and just straight up ask a pharmacist for amoxicillin and ofc that didn’t work, but he was nice enough to suggest some over the counter methods.
Is this typical on Bermuda?
