Answers:

Sure you can go. But don't expect the HMO to pay for all or maybe even any of it.

Unfortunately, the nature of HMO coverage is often, wait...
It may be, however, that the surgeon just doesn't have a sooner appointment. While your problem is certainly important to you, it may be (viewed objectively) less serious than someone else's.
