I was just about floored when they said that ALL of their family medicine offices/doctors in all locations are booked out until JANUARY 2018, for new patients!

Not surprising for new patients. I need to schedule routine physicals a few months out, too, and I have great insurance through my company and have been seeing my doctor for years.

Are you on Obamacare? If not, then why would you think it was Obamacare related?

It may be the new normal. I never had to wait that long to see a GP as a new patient. Maybe a week or two, but never months. Am not on Obamacare, but the ACA has changed all facets of healthcare in this country, IMO.
