Not sure about your insurance coverage or anything like that, but I just went to a Pulminary Specialist doc who then referred me to the study center which took a month to get into. Then took the study, waited a few weeks to see the doctor again, then was referred back to the study center about a month later for the second test. Then a few weeks after that I met with the specialist again.
There are relatively few beds for this testing, but more are being added. The specialist team I went to is actually building their own center in their building. That's drastically reduce the wait time.
