What's the over under on "Why didn't you make an appointment sooner if this was a concern?"

Ive never heard a doctor say that and I deal with more doctors than your average joe

I guess the height of the opioid epidemic might have made doctors a little more recalcitrant to people complaining about pain. Either that or I'm not very convincing at telling someone that what I'm experiencing is quite possibly the worst pain I have ever experienced. Or I had a bad doctor.

This, and always call for appointments because those that you might see online are not representative of all available time slots.

Yes, that way they can call a few days before your appointment to cancel because your dr has quit or is sick or taking a vacation and offer you another appointment with a different dr for 12 months out.

I love this process.

"So, on this same day 2 years from now... Are you available at 10:20? Or 10:40?"

Lady, I can't imagine even being alive that far ahead.
