How is this a thing when there are conditions that could likely get drastically worse in between the symptoms showing and the actual appointment date? And also people getting no assurance it’s not something life threatening causing extra anxiety and stress?
I have no expertise in economics or the medical industry so I’d appreciate any insights.

The key is in the name. A specialist is someone who specializes, or is an expert, in one specific thing. There are fewer of them than general practitioners(your normal doctor) because 1) it’s harder to get certified in that specific field and 2) it’s more expensive because you have to be in school longer. This naturally means there are fewer specialists then we’d like.
