Is it worth getting health insurance in the UK?

Monday, August 3rd, 2009
Ok – I’m here from the States where you absolutely have to have health insurance, but in England – there’s the NHS. All well and good but it takes forever to get an appointment with my GP, and for specialist stuff – like ENT, good clean dentists and the like, it takes forever and it’s damn expensive. So is it worth getting health insurance over here? And if so, which providers are best? Anybody with personal experience, or who just knows the ins-and-outs, let me know.
