If your doctor was giving a talk, perhaps you could have postponed your appointment. My husband signed up about a month ago. His appointment with his selected doctor isn't until Dec. They said other doctors had appointments sooner--should that be his choice. He said Dec would be fine. They said to come in any time if a problem should arise. (He would probably see another doc or PA in this instance).

It is my understanding that the doctors stay pretty much on schedule. I waited less than 5 minutes. If I came in needing some stitches in my hand, I would be promptly treated, but not by my assigned physician. This is the way they can keep appointments on time. Everyone has complete access to your records--including the patient on their own computer.
