"A quick note to let you know that Dr xxxx's schedule is completely booked until the end of December. If you are looking for an appointment (using online booking), you need to search in January or February. You are welcome to reach her thru Ava Connect to see if your questions can be answered virtually and/or she can help you navigate your healthcare options.
"Dr xxxxx will be working part-time at the clinic for the next few years. Her typical days at the clinic are Mondays and Tuesdays. This will allow her to be more present with her young family. She also plans to be more available to her family during school holidays. Our Nurse Practitioner, yyyyyy, is available to see patients who need to be seen sooner than Dr xxxx's schedule will allow (& yyyyy's schedule is available online using Ava Connect). Some days there are available appointments with other providers, but you will need to call the clinic @ 403-443-5522 to check.

Unfortunately, aside from Dr zzzz coming when his schedule will allow, there have been no new clinic locums expressing interest and recruitment is also proving to be quite difficult. Thank you for your continued patience and understanding.

{Gotta say I'm glad to be here in Mexico at the moment, where a doctor is available on walk-in basis anytime}.

You are looking at a country that our grandparents would not recognize. In less than three generations, the very shape of the American body has shifted so dramatically that what would once have been regarded as rare or concerning is now routine. Airplane seats have been widened, retail clothing racks have been extended, mannequins have been reshaped, and soda cups have been enlarged. Entire industries have recalibrated to accommodate a physiology that is neither healthy nor sustainable.
