How long should you wait for a doctor to return your call?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
typically if you do: Not get a call back within 12-24 hours, call them back, likely they forgot. However, if it is something that you believe needs more immediate attention/solution, then you may consider visiting your local emergency room.
