I saw 4 Drs, 1 of whom was a specialist, and supporting staff. I had a small surgery.

I was told they were busy but would fit me in when they could but likely it would be 2–3 hours, especially since I was out of area, and not one of their patients. If I remember correctly I paid 200Sek ($20 approx) and sat and waited.

In total I paid roughly $60 + parking
