PCP wait in Havre, MT: 33 days. Skip the wait.

Online care available in Montana — choose an appointment time or continue without one.

Havre is a Frontier HPSA. New-patient primary care appointments average 33 days locally — and brick-and-mortar directory sites can't fix that because there's no provider inventory to book. Ondoc's behind-the-scenes panel of board-certified clinicians has no such limit: the clinicians serving Montana metros serve Havre too.

Why directory sites can't solve this in Havre

HRSA designates Havre as a Frontier HPSA. There aren't enough local PCPs taking new patients to populate a meaningful directory — that's the definition of a shortage area. An online clinician panel sidesteps the inventory problem entirely: the prescriber doesn't need to be physically in Havre, only licensed in Montana.
