The day has come.I have run out of prescriptions.I have no doctor. He retired three months ago. Said he would leave me six months of prescriptions. I guess he didnt. There is no walk in. It collapsed when doctors left. No non-urgent care in rural Alberta. Pharmacy says they need Rxs. So do I sit in emerg until I go into diabetic shock? What waste of money and service that is. What is your plan for doctors in @ABDanielleSmith @RachelNotley
