Call on Friday's, that's when they make courtesy calls to patients confirming their upcoming appointments.  People say they can't make it, voila, an appointment is available.

I'm seeing the NUT, SW, RN and having a scope done on the 13th.  I'm hoping Dr. Hagen (he's doing the scope) will let me go from the scope to his office to book a surgery date. It certainly won't hurt to ask :)
