No wonder you have to wait so long for an appointment that doctor is never in the office

So, I contacted my doctor about a prescription last Friday, and they said he wasn't in the office on Fridays but they would give him the message. To his credit he promptly sent in the prescription. Well I sent him a message today, and there was a note that he was not in until after the 24th which would be Monday. He was also gone at the end of June for a week..but I suppose he was on vacay for the 4th. Maybe he has to do rounds at the hospital, or maybe he works with some other organization or maybe he is just goofing off..who knows? Does your doctor like to hide from the office?

He's probably playing golf with my doctor.

Fortunately, I have my doctor's number. Not his office. So whenever I need a prescription, I just send him a message.
It sucks when the doctor is always away.

It's usually easy to get an appointment for me

Thank goodness I do not have to deal with doctor's not wanting to see me when I have an appointment with them.

That isn't exactly what I was saying..You can't easily get an appointment though.

I asked for a specialist appointment today and can’t get in until December
