@basketballpal Oh, goodness. July 11 is too far away in time! Yes, please call the office and ask if you can have an appointment sooner or ask to put on the "wait list". In the event that you're told there are no earlier appointments, other members here in our Gynecological Cancers Support Group have found that if they call the medical office every week and ask about a cancellation then they are able to get an appointment that way. You know the saying "the squeaky wheel gets the grease"? You can be that squeaky wheel...😉.

I think Helen is right, you need to call your Oncologist's office at least weekly to see if there is a cancellation. Myself, I would call daily, maybe twice a day in the morning and afternoon. I was told at my Drs office when a cancellation comes in the next person to call gets the opening, they do not keep a call list of people who are waiting for earlier appointments. Good luck, this is your life. Do not be bothered by what the receptionist thinks of your frequent calls:)
