FREEDOM, EQUALITY IN SPADES IN NZ
NZ may have somewhat lost many of the features that have made us a great nation worldwide in the past but not that of democracy.
in the latest survey (2023) on the most democratic countries in the world, NZ sits in second place behind Norway.
Interestingly both countries are similar in population and sit at either end of the globe.
Australia ranks ninth, the UK 21st and the USA sliding to 26th.
The USA has never been in the top 10 since these international surveys started which is ironic because Americans think and are told they are the greatest democratic nation the world has ever seen. Land of the free. Yeah right.
So living in a exceedingly democratic country and all that is meant to entail, it seems even more ludicrous that the city of Upper Hutt, has landed in a situation with its water pipes that has gone unresolved and almost unchecked over a lengthy period of years and a blind eye to it has been cast by elected councillors and Mayors and the staff they harbour.
Poll: How important is the ability to book a doctor’s appointment online?
Hi Neighbours
Here at The Doctors we would love to hear how you prefer to book your doctor’s appointments. With busy schedules, different people find different methods easier.
For some, online booking is very convenient, you can make an appointment anytime without needing to wait on the phone. Others still prefer calling the clinic and speaking to a real person, especially if they have specific questions about their visit.
Your feedback helps us understand what works best for our patients and how we can improve access to care.
