Why?
For an everyday health problem, you first see your regular doctor (médecin traitant). This is the coordinated care pathway (parcours de soins coordonnés): the regular doctor treats you and, if necessary, refers you to a specialist. The emergency department, 15 and 18 are for serious situations.
