In my case I was lucky and passed both stones.
I was an existing patient, and lead time for follow-up appointment was about 3 weeks, 2 more weeks for the cat scan, and then around 2 weeks for the follow up.
I would also have a discussion with your current doctor as to what to do in case you start showing symptoms.

I had no problem getting an appointment with Dr.Dersh after a 7 and a half hour wait at the ER before being seen. Dr.D fit me right in and IMO is an exceptional urologist. But, like I said, that's my opinion.
