    A regular Dr. appointments in my area are out 2 months.

    Specialist are at 6 months. Some of them are out as long as 18 months .

    My wife is going in for non-emergency surgery today, it’s taken 6 months.

    It’s gotten bad enough that you have to go the ER or Urgent care for stuff a GP traditionally to handles.

    Look up Providence Group, they purchase the local hospital system and have since fucked it up. Providers are leaving in droves because of their naked corruption.
