I started physio last week, they gave me one app, then said they´re full but take me in on short notice if someone cancels.
Not surprisingly I didn´t get a call.
Lucky for me the rooms are right beside ALDI, 5 minutes from my workplace, so in my break I went over and said, so, seems it didn´t work this week, what can we do about next week?
After a bit of nahhhhh I got three appointments.
I really do wonder: If I just called via phone, would they made it possible to get some dates?
Quite frankly I don´t think so, likely they´d just said, sorry, we´re overbooked.
That´s at least how it happened all the years before in similar situations.
Does it make such a huge difference for people to try to help you when they actually see you? When they have to look at your face to say, “sorry, I can do nothing about it”, though actually they – as proven – could, with a bit of effort?
Or was it saying, what can we do about it?
What do you think, do you have any experience with this?
Anyhows, happy-lucky me: I got three more apps and hopefully all is back to normal with my stiff neck soon :-)

Just get in the queue. That's what I do. :-)
I actually hate when people show up at the clinic without an appointment! I prefer that they phone and say it's urgent and we try and do our best to get them in or ask the Doctors if they can see them sometime.
We put them on a waiting list too, and write there it's urgent, and there's always people cancelling so they usually get to be seen the same day!
It looks like it works the other way round over there!
No, no, you got me totally wrong, Sami :-)
I didn´t want an app like right now but see if there is one next week - I´m not that important!
I hope they're good Iris and get that neck sorted, makes life so hard when you have a stiff neck.
