Don't forget to try a resident (doctor in training) clinic associated with BIDMC / BU / Etc. Often residents will have quick bookings and all appointments are precepted by an attending, so if there is a worry you have an attending doctor involved.
(IT IS IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER THAT THE MORE PEOPLE YOU HAVE INVOLVED IN YOUR CARE THE BETTER THE CARE IS!) SO DON'T THINK YOU'RE GETTING BAD CARE FROM SOME MED STUDENTS!!
I called BIDMC and they told me their attendings were booking out 1.5 years (!!!) for new pts, but in the resident clinic, I got an appointment in 2 weeks! Now you might have turnover as residents graduate (Int Med and FamMed are 3-year residencies) but my PCP was hired as an attending!
