Options: Find out who they have subbing in for them. Most doctors will have an emergency contact for their patients if they are on vacation. You could also consider telemedicine with an on-line provider.

Pilonidal disease : Apparently the 2018 surgery was not definitive and that surgeon is not available. May be time to find a different surgeon.
