Same experience trying to get appt with neurologist in Pompano Beach/Ft Lauderdale.
It took me 6 months to get appts with a neurologist and rheumatologist in Ft Lauderdale a couple of years ago, with primary care referrals. I had blood clots and weird issues with my legs. It took only days to get an appt with an orthopedic guy. It seems part of the problem with the neuro/rheum guys is that they treat people for life, so they have very few appts available for new patients. Once you get that first appt, you are able to get treatment as needed. In my case, after 6 months, nobody could figure out the issues and they finally luckily resolved themselves.
