Do doctors call patients on the weekend?

I am so frustrated that I haven't heard from my daughter's doctor. 

Do they make calls on the weekend or should I disconnect myself from the phone?

Re: Do doctors call patients on the weekend?

  • If it's a follow up to test or something 'standard', I wouldn't expect a call.  The Dr. is either off this weekend or on call and attending to emergencies.  They usualy do phone calls when they have office hours.

  • Not usually. I would count on getting a call on Monday!
  • I don't think you'd get a call, I'd be shocked if you did.  Sorry they're leaving you hanging.  I hope your little girl is doing ok!

  • I'm not sure if you called them or what the background story is, but our pedi's office has the doctors on call and they have returned our calls no matter what time of day or night.  I'm sorry they haven't gotten back to you - I hope it's nothing serious.  ((HUGS))

    Thanks. I am going INSANE I tell you. If he doesn't call Monday morning, I will be sitting in his office on Monday afternoon.

  • No new is good news, but I would still be waiting by the phone!  I would call every half hour on Monday until you talk to him.
