My daughter has an appointment in a couple weeks with a GI specialist here (the earliest they could get us in) and her symptoms have escalated dramatically, so I called this morning asking if they could get her in sooner. My problem is not that they couldn't get us in sooner, but how the scheduler handled it. Pretty much the gist of her response: We are booked, so nothing I can do about it. When I asked for more guidance, she pretty much responded that it's not their problem and I should contact her regular doctor. If her regular doctor could help her, we wouldn't be trying to see a specialist! I have rescheduled my appointment with Banner Pediatric specialists and they could get us in a whole week earlier!
