20. I had some trouble getting an appointment and so have some others.

I did get an appointment in December but that was after a few weeks of trying. Partly it was logistics. We only have one car which I don't have access to during the day and the available locations didn't line up with my transit choices. I think this is a problem for a lot of people, especially in rural areas.
