I've been told I will have to wait 2 months to see a specialist in Toronto. So I am interested traveling to the U.S. for one. Has anyone experienced this? What is involved in contacting a doctor in Buffalo for example and driving there? Do I still need a referral? Any advice would be helpful.

You can just call a doc to make an appointment and explain your situation. As long as you're willing to pay for your visit, it shouldn't be tough getting an appointment. Most bigger doctors' offices accept credit cards.
Isn't it better you call the doctor in Buffalo?

I know, but there's always some bureaucracy that I get caught up in with things like this. You know... you when you wait in line somewhere for an hour and the person at the desk says: "Sir, you need this little paper with such'n-such a number on it. It's Murphy's Law. I'm not spending a day or two to go all the way down there and have someone at a desk tell me I need that little paper or they can't do it because of whatever, and have to go all the way back home and try again. I just want to be sure I have everything I need to get this thing done. That's why I was hoping someone out there has been through it and can give me some tips to avoid hassles.
