I can't recall how many private docs\clinics there are.

In France?

State employees, IIRC. You may be right about Britain. Admittedly it's been quite a while since I looked into it. From what I remember even though you would be treated at a NHS hospital, you could purchase a greatly increased level of service and care with personal funds. This was used to help fund National Health. While a government facility, it was almost like being in a private hospital.
