After an examination by a junior doctor, and a consultation with the consultant. I had a small surgical procedure, and went home.

They concluded I needed to be referred to the hospital in the next city (40 miles away) and booked an appointment for me for the next day.

seems good to me.

What happens if a parent refuses to let their child be transgender? What happens if the parent tries their hardest not to allow their child to be trans, like flushing every bottle of their trans child's HRT down the toilet?

I saw 4 Drs, 1 of whom was a specialist, and supporting staff. I had a small surgery.

I was leaving the hospital less than 24 hours from first walking into the health centre.

I went to the hospital the next day, paid 400 Sek ($40 ish) and went to the ENT department.

What do you think of Tesla's Model Y coming in ninth among electric cars sales in Europe?

Most answers seem to be from the UK, so I will relate my experience here in Sweden.

My nose started to bleed and wouldn’t stop.

I walked into the local health centre and explained my problem and asked if I could see someone.

Non distinctio minus inventore tempora repudiandae mollitia.

I was away from home in another region of Sweden

In total I paid roughly $60 + parking

remember this is all out of area

Does the rest of the world see America as a joke now that Trump is president again?

After around 30mins I was called by a nurse who checked my nose. She then went to get a Dr to look further. This Dr then got another Dr to check and confer with.

I was told they were busy but would fit me in when they could but likely it would be 2–3 hours, especially since I was out of area, and not one of their patients. If I remember correctly I paid 200Sek ($20 approx) and sat and waited.
