I was released in 2013, June. I was told to put in my application for a physician six months ahead of time, so I did it around the January timeframe. I didn't get a doctor until this past year, so in 2016.
Up until that point in time, I was waiting at 5:30 in the morning, in the dead cold of winter, to go and get paperwork signed by a doctor at the walk-in clinic. In Fredericton, you had to be there at 5:30, because the doors opened to the building at 6:00, then you waited outside the clinic from 6:00 until 7:30, and then the office opened its doors at 7:30. Then you put your name on a list, and if you weren't in the first 20 or so people you were not getting seen that day because it was only open until 12:00.
