Also, in my area, you get to wait 2 months to see your primary care doctor even if you are an established patient. You will most likely either be recovered or dead by the time your appointment arrives (unless you have a chronic illness).

Was in a notable car accident, not the worst, but definitely not the best. Was advised to start PT immediately on discharge from hospital.

Every PT within 30 miles of me had a 3-6 month wait, when they were accepting new clients whatsoever.

I am very sorry (but, unfortunately, not surprised) to hear that. I hope that you’re doing okay.

It seems we are paying more than ever for less-than-ever access to medical care.

Yeah I end up going to urgent care for just about everything, because my doctor is months out.
