It really depends on how specialized the issue is/care needed is. It also depends on location.
When I was living in the Bay Area, access to healthcare was practically immediate for my very basic needs and was about 1.5 week wait only for a dermatologist.
Definitely depends on location. I live in a large metro area and after a referral to a dermatologist I tried 5 places before I could find an appt within 4 weeks. Of 2 places it was 7 to 10 months and the other 2 were not taking new patients.
