It sure would be hard to call a covering T. I didn't even know they did that. Guess my T's vacations haven't been long enough or I've never called her vm when she was on vacation. Her standard message tells you that the pager service can get ahold of her if necessary. (And of course, go to the hospital if it's an emergancy.) I would expect a cover for a pdoc though, but I'd only call them if I needed meds. It would be hard to talk to someone new. Glad it does work for people though.

I'd like to call my pdoc's vm, but I'm afraid he would answer and then I'd feel dumb. Plus, now that I think about it, his voice usually isn't on there. Bum.
