The first appointment I could get is in four months

Published Wednesday, April 17, 2019

I called my Kaiser psychiatrist’s office today to let them know I was feeling worse every day and might need to change my meds. They called back and said that the soonest my doctor could see me is August 21st, more than FOUR MONTHS from now. I made a therapy appointment last week for the soonest time available: SIX WEEKS from now.
