Time for neurology Appt.
Hi All, I live in the Twin Cities in MN. And when my 1st neurology appt. was scheduled the first available was 4 mos. out. When I saw him He said the EMG-NCS done at the Ortho practice that was treating me. Was abnormal and didn't match the symptoms. And that we would need to re run the tests. So he states. We'll have you come back in 2 mos. and re run the tests and schedule a visit with me on the same day. OK, so I head out to the lobby to schedule those appts. and low and behold, first avail. appt. is in 4 mos. Has this been every ones experience somewhat, or is it the area I'm located in?

Convenience does make a difference. It's not everything, but it's something. Before I retired, all of my doctors were located on the far side of town, in the suburbs, an hour's drive. With retirement, I had to choose new medical insurance, and with my chosen insurance, a new group of in-network doctors. I began by choosing a new primary doctor, and she, in turn, as issues arose, referred me to specialists, all of whom were her colleagues and, therefore, on the same medical campus. I hadn't set out to bundle my doctors like that; it just worked out that way –– and it has been a convenience. I wish you similar success as you change health systems. ––Ray (@ray666)
