That depends entirely on what the problem is. You might not get a long examination on your first visit for common complaint with no red flags.

But even then just because you don’t think they are using most of their senses, doesn’t mean they aren’t.

It depends entirely on the local health care system and your health insurance. In germany for example it comes in 2 tiers. Premium or standard. Standard comes with no time for the patient. (Or not even being able to get a appointment)

		I don’t know anything about German healthcare. In the US people on Medicaid frequently use emergency rooms as primary care because they are open 24/7 and they don’t have any copays like people with private insurance do. These patients then get far more tests than they’d get at a PCP.
