Dear Editor,

[Re: $600M health-care cheque coming to B.C., langleyadvancetimes.com, Feb. 14]

Don鈥檛 get too excited about getting a GP doctor.

I have one, and as good as he is, I still have to wait three weeks now just to get a phone call with him to renew long-term prescriptions, never mind a real face to face doctors visit.
