What happened to care for patients. I would think if doctor takes off he would at least try work patients in that was affected soon as possible? But, just old patients and they are dime dozen around here. My rant over now I can set and wait 5 months see it it get canx?  |
They may be cancelling to allow more immediate issues to be treated. If you had a symptom which may be connected to a more dangerous illness, you would probably be seen sooner. If it is just a wellness check or mild complaint, I think you’d be top name on the list ‘able to be cancelled’. Possibly you are not stating your symptoms/problems correctly. Maybe redefine your issues….
(or, you may have chosen an excellent Dr who is in high demand & has more emergency patients. Possibly less qualified/respected Drs are readily available).
