YOu are fortunate to have such ready access to your medical care in NY. IN N Va to see your family doctor it could take as little as 2 days to 2 weeks to schedule an appointment. Rarely can they see you the day you call but if it is a true emergency they will fit you in within 24 hours or else you go to Critical Care CLinic or the emergency room. For speciality DRs like orthopedic surgeons (especially the ones you want to see) it could take weeks to schedule an appointment but then when my wife broke her ankle I pleaded my case and they took her the same day on standby.
