It's over for me - Canadian healthcare edition

[Yoke]

I am recessed and was referred to a maxillofacial surgeon by my ortho. In my city all the maxillofacial surgeons group together like jews out of one practice, so naturally they have a long wait list.

Anyways a year goes by and i contact them, they tell me they are currently not doing surgerys/consultations due to covid. Fine, whatever
Most mandates have been lifted by now and i contact them back. Now it is 1.5 years after referral. They tell me there is a 3-5 YEAR wait time just to get a consultation, and it would be another 5+ years after that for a surgery if needed

its over

-edit
and also our healthcare does not cover surgery fees, only the hospital fee like anesthesia and only if you have a condition such as sleep apnea and only if you can prove that you can't cope with CPAP devices

In the US, its expensive af, but I will say you get what you pay for. Medical treatment in the United States is the best in the world.

you’d probably be in your peak at 50 yo by the time you’re fully recovered from bimax
