I usually have to wait, but I'd probably just go with whoever is available at the time I needed to see someone.

The last time i went to the doctor with a really bad kidney infection(i could barely walk i was in that much pain) the recpetionist (complete cow) said to me " Well you know you have to book your appiontment two weeks in advance" "Oh I am sorry, haha silly me, i should have known two weeks ago that i would have a severe kidney infection, in that case i will make an appointment for the 6th of december 2008 because i think i will have pnumonia that say" Stupid bitch, she is a horrible horrible cow, but you have to be nice to her, otherwise she won't let you see the doctor.  I have been going to the same doctor since i was in my mummys tummy  |

Usually the same day, which makes me wonder if he is a very good doctor, since nobody else seems to want to see the guy......

Same day....my parents searched everywhere to find a doctor that wouldn't make you wait. I think its horrible that people should have to wait at all, anywhere.

The same day, but it is usually in the afternoon which annoys me. I'd rather go in the morning to get it over with so I can back to bed.

I could probably see them the same day if need be, but they would have to squeeze me in and it would have to be really important. I could go to the walk-in clinic where I sometimes go in the same day for sure.

I really never get to see my doctor. So I usually go to the urgent care center. Or the emergency room if its really necessary.

Its atleast a 15 day wait at the very minimum. There is a major doctor shortage here, and one retired so my doctor took on that doctors 2000 patients. Think Im gonna just get a new doctor in my own town. Its too far to travel anyways.

Sleep it off? What are you suffering from the "Brown Bottle Flu?" |

What the hell is brown bottle flu? A hangover?
Anyway, seriously. Who goes to the doctor every single time they get sick? Last time I went to the doctor for being sick I had the flu and bronchitis at the same time and couldn't breathe. Unless I'm practically dying, I feel no need to run to the doctor every time I feel bad.

I usually have to wait at least a week for an appoinment. If something's really bothering me, I'll just go to a walk-in clinic.

I usually have to wait. It kind of irks me they INSIST you be there at a certain time (your "scheduled" appt time), but then you'll have to wait for a half hour because they are behind. It happens every f*ing time and gets really old.

Same day, but only if I'm really sick. The last time I wound up with an ear infection.
