How many doctors offices did you reach out to? Did you try to find one on zocdoc?

  Only my primary care. It was a pretty major center in terms of associated doctors. The idea that someone would have to keep calling different doctors offices to find one that would take me is just as absurd as needing to wait 1 month.

    It really isn't, and Zocdoc solves this problem. Calling an office hardly takes 2 minutes; why wouldn't you shop around? By contrast your approach is "I've tried nothing and I'm all out of options".

      Isn't the whole point of a primary care that a doctor chooses a 'limited' number of patients for whom they can make themselves available ? I usually keep myself open to any doctor in my primary care location, outside the one person I see on a regular basis. I don't see why you'd want to see a different doctor every time, if that means making sure insurances are sorted out, transferring all my media reports over to the new practice and building a new rapport with that doctor.
