Members shared mixed experiences about whether it takes longer to get appointments now, with opinions ranging from same-day access to waiting over a year for a specialist. Several members noted that location, doctor availability, and the type of appointment all play a big role, with some enjoying easy email or online scheduling while others struggled with long waits since COVID. A recurring theme was frustration with automated systems and a strong preference for speaking with a real person when booking care.

No. Easier, My neurologist will email me and set up an appointment on the phone.

I was diagnosed during Covid so everything seems faster to me. I think it depends on the location and availability.

Ever since COVID it takes a long time to get in to see a Dr it's ridiculous

I make most of my Dr appointments six months in advance. Blood work I just walk in. And if it something that needs pre authorization that’s very difficult.

My appointments are always set for my next 1 when I'm seeing my Neurologist. On my PCP, I call to have 1 set. They'll set my next 1 while there also.
