It is the usual practice by doctor's offices here in Indiana as well.

A doctor sets a numerical limit to how big his practice can be and for those asking it is a no---the doctor is not taking new patients right now. He cannot take care of everyone or those that he already has can't get in.

I know that does not help your situation.

We have a physicians referral service associated with our hospitals that let you know which doctors are taking new patients. Is there such a thing there?
