Maybe I'm being ridiculous here, but I would like to know your opinions, and I hope you guys can share

My pdoc seems to take vacations and mini vacations quite often. He works Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, but he likes to take Fridays off every 2-3 weeks (and he never tells me which Friday it is, which tells me he does this on a whim). Sometimes he'll even give himself a "mini vacation" by taking two consecutive work days off.. And about every 2-3 *months*, he'll go on vacation for 2.5 weeks. I wish this situation was an exaggeration.

How do I find out when he's out of the office? I call his phone asking for help, but then I just get a voicemail message saying he's not in the office and that I should contact the covering doctor. Well, I don't want to contact the covering doctor! The person knows nothing about me! Usually I need a modified Rx (a higher or lower dosage), but I'm not going to get that with a covering doctor. The only answer I get from the covering doctor is a polite way of saying "sucks to be you!"

Now, he does see a large number of clients, so it's not as if he takes time off in anticipation of no appointments. In fact, if I reschedule an appointment, it takes two weeks to get one! Sometimes it's even three!

Do you think it's worth ditching him based on that alone? I'm thinking yes, but at the same time, I don't know if this type of "schedule" (if that's what you want to call it) is fairly typical.
