Depending on urgent care
Urgent care is a great option for literally millions of emergency room patients
without life threatening problems who wait for hours before being seen by a
doctor. In today’s healthcare environment, finding a new doctor requires
overcoming a few hurdles such as:
- Constant changes in healthcare insurance plans will sometimes mean that patients have a new primary-care doctor.
- Scheduling for a patient visit can take from a few days to a few weeks in the future.
- When you have an urgent medical problem, obviously you cannot wait until the new patient visit has been scheduled.
Same day appointments
Primary care doctors are in high demand and they fill their days with
appointments to see as many patients as possible. There was a time when doctors
would leave space open on their schedule for sick patients. However the present
day realities of healthcare economics, these open sick visit spots are scarce
or non-existent. Usually when you call a primary care doctor, the front desk
staff is trained to refer you to an emergency department or to let you find
care on your own.
