Thanks for answering my request to post here, Jill.
It is quite remarkable the accommodations that can be made to suit patients' schedules, especially if you're coming from out of town.

Thanks for looping me in on this, Colleen.

I would just like to add; In Rochester we have a "checker desk" located in the Gonda lobby and admissions area where patients can talk with a representative, discuss what appointments they would like to get into early and the checker desk does the calling to rearrange the patients schedule. This is strictly for consultation not testing. Also, please keep in mind that not all departments accept checkers but the majority do.
