They are so busy that if I wanted to see my actual assigned doctor, I'd have to make an appointment three weeks in advance. My assigned doctor quit a few years ago, and my next assigned doctor also quit before I ever got to see them in person. I honestly could not tell you the name of whoever my apparent doctor is now.

This is also shit for those suffering a mental health crisis, as Rushy points out. They would be less inclined to seek help if it would likely result in their enjoyment of hunting or shooting being taken away. Though I imagine this has probably always been the case - the Police are just being more vocal in reminding doctors of their obligations.

Doctors certainly have some concerns, the buck will stop with them
