My wife and I generally have to wait upwards of six months for an
appointment with our dermatologist. Then once we are evaluated,
any follow-up appointments for treatments come at few-week
intervals.
But the initial waiting . . . Whew! What if we had a melonoma? The
waiting could be fatal, I think.
