For example:
A doctor that you are supposed to be seeing on a regular basis, say, every other month. You don't see them for over 90 days, get into trouble, call them on Saturday morning around 10:00, what would they tell you?

...the prudent answer would be that it would depend on the nature of the emergency, and most MD's I know would have another associate on call and punt to ER if it wasn't able to be handled over phone.
