Well, in Germany health care is affordable in terms of cost.
However, while 20 years ago you just went to a doctor when you were sick, these days you will wait hours and hours even at your family physician's crowded waiting room.
You need a specialist?
6 months if it's something serious like a cardiologist.
If you're on private health insurance, alright, only 3 months.
I don't know if this is specific to Germany, or similar in all of Europe.
But that is a change many people notice that I speak with.
