leave a voicemail!!! they’ll call you back!!! which may be scarier to have a jumpscare doctor call but it will at least force u to schedule it instead of waiting longer

I dunno…the annoyance brings out the Karen in me. So, I call again immediately because how dare you not answer after all that mental work I did to get myself to call you?

I need to but I have to call them during my work hours 😵‍💫 and I’m a first timer so I’m worried they’ll have 50 million questions I don’t have answers to

Consider looking for other in network OBGYNs! Some practices even have an online scheduling option so you don’t even have to talk to someone beforehand!

i have but unfortunately a lot of the ones in my area have really bad reviews and this one is already 45 minutes away and is the best in the area that takes my insurance

If it has good reviews the doctors are probably pretty good, maybe they just have some real bitches manning the phones. I hope your Pap smear goes well!
