Not sure I believe this, since a quick search shows that wait times are typically 3 to 5 days in NYC, but if it's true then go somewhere else. In the Dallas area you can get an MRI within an hour of a doctor ordering one.

For real, I've never had a problem getting MRIs almost immediately (Oregon).

I’m in ct, its non critical. If I went to the er i could get one also in an hour. But I don’t want to have a 100,000 dollar hospital stay.
