The ER crisis up close:
We asked the doctor how to avoid spending a day in the ER just to get antibiotics. She explained that had I arrived in an ambulance, I would have received immediate treatment; ambulances were handled immediately. After 10 hours at the hospital, I left with a prescription and a first-class education in the ER crisis. Trust me, it is real.
