The most seriously ill patients are treated first. The emergency department does not work on the principle of first come, first served.
You may be seen by a doctor’s assistant rather than a physician. This assistant can examine and diagnose patients. Their work is supported by a doctor.

You have the right to ask for a 2nd opinion before making a decision about major medical issues.
